Description

pgs., in length.

 

Each essay must be written on a specific topic derived from the Conceptual Toolkit. The Toolkit lists the following seven topical categories: (1) Ultimate Reality, (2) Human Nature, (3) Evil, (4) Sainthood and Mysticism, (5) Rituals, (6) Sacred Time, and (7) Authority. Two of these topics will have been used for the Discussions (see above). Students may choose one of the remaining five topical categories as the theme and focus of their essays.

 

Essays should NOT contain the following: (1) summaries of material from the textbook or (2) summaries of the lecture content, without any analysis.

 

IMPORTANT: Essays must include direct, explicit reference to material covered during in-class lectures to receive more than 50 % credit for the assignment. Any ideas, topics, or issues introduced in an essay must be shown to derive from lecture contents. This means that students have to cite all relevant lectures.

 

All essays must be completed in accord with the University of Utah%u0432%u0402%u2122s stated standards of academic conduct (University Policy 6-400, %u0432%u0402%u045AStudent Code,%u0432%u0402%u045C section V; see http://regulations.utah.edu/academics/6-400.php (Links to an external site.)). In particular, the work that students submit must be their own work. Any and all sources must be clearly and accurately cited, and any material that comes directly from any source must be clearly indicated as such. Failure to abide by these policies will result in a grade of 0/10. In addition, any student who violates these rules %u0432%u0402%u045A. . . may be subject to academic sanctions including but not limited to a grade reduction, failing grade, probation, suspension or dismissal from the program or the University, or revocation of the student’s degree or certificate.
