Ok, upon request, as promised, here are the guidelines and the rubric for your essay.  You should already have a hard copy from your first essay assignment, but in case you've lost it, feel free to download this copy for your own reference.  Remember that the guidelines in these documents are for my class only, and you should check with your other teachers before applying them in their courses.
