Abstract
The paper attempts to show how Susan Smith Nash's article "Don't Plagiarize!!" makes several excellent points in helping students to understand plagiarism without being condescending or accusatory. The paper discusses the article's identification of the five most common forms of plagiarism. The paper contends that the act of plagiarism is academically and morally wrong.

From the Paper
"To be fair, there are students who are not skilled at note-taking and may plagiarize unintentionally. They may have written down specific words from the text rather than paraphrase or extract solely the details for compilation in their own words. However, experience dictates that instructors are somewhat lenient if this is detected, giving the student another chance before their academic reputation is permanently tarnished. An example of this is including the plagiarized reference in the bibliography but lacking proper citation for paraphrasing or quotation marks for statements taken as direct quotes from the source."

From the Paper
"This research paper compares and contrasts two of the most celebrated American child murder cases of the 1990s --the kidnapping and brutal slaying of 12 year old Polly Klaas in Petaluma, California by Richard Davis in October 1993 and the deliberate drowning by Susan Smith of her two sons, three year old Michael and 14 months-old Alexander, on the outskirts of Union, South Carolina on October 25, 1994.

Introduction
Because of the helplessness of the victims of child murders, the grisly details of their slaying and the suffering and trauma involved, public attention in the United States has often been riveted on, and shocked by, child murders. Berg (1998) said the kidnapping and murder of the infant son of ..."

Abstract
This paper discusses feminist American writer Susan Griffin's theory of the self in terms of the stories in her book, "A Chorus of Stones". The paper expands upon Griffin's observation that an individual does not exist in isolation.

Abstract
The paper relates that when most people go to the supermarket to look for their favorite fruits, they probably do not contemplate their purchases too deeply, in fact, most people are creatures of habit and often just buy the same types of produce they have eaten for years. Sometimes, however, new things can be learned by slowing down and taking the time to look at things in a new way. The paper relates that Granny Smith and Fuji apples are two of the most popular types of apple in the world, in fact, as one team of experts reports, along with a few other types of apples, Granny Smith and Fuji account for the vast majority of the world's production (Barrett, Somogyi and Hosahalli 461). The current discussion compares and contrasts Granny Smith and Fuji apples.

Abstract
This paper analyzes two sonnets, "Written in the Church-Yard at Middleton in Sussex " and "On Being Cautioned against Walking on an Headland Overlooking the Sea, Because It Was Frequented by a Lunatic" by the British Romantic writer, Charlotte Smith. The paper examines important themes of the Romantic Period as expressed in these sonnets, such as social reform, deep emotion, and nature. The reviewer also discusses Charlotte Smith's role as a Romantic writer and her use of the sonnet form.

From the Paper
"The first one of these poems that involves themes of freedom and constraint is "Written in the Church-Yard at Middleton in Sussex." The constraint in this poem, for the speaker, is life itself. The speaker is "doom'd" (ln. 13), oppressed "by life's long storm" (ln. 13) and "gaze[s] with envy" (ln. 14) on the "gloomy rest" (ln. 14) of the dead. Although a specific reason is never given for the speaker's melancholy, readers can see the correlation to general themes of writing that were emerging at the beginning of the Romantic Period."

Abstract
This paper demonstrates that the natural order of life is for a parent to protect the child and that abuse of the child, including murder, is a reflection of an unstable mind and a person who is unable to function effectively within the community. Along with the example of Medea, the author brings some modern day examples of women that have killed there children, such as Susan Smith and Andrea Yates.

From the Paper
"The killing of a child in real life has no symbolic meaning, no power other than that of an expression of evil and is, therefore, one of the worst acts a human, let alone a parent, can commit. In literature, however, the killing of children is symbolic of a diseased mind or of a diseased culture. Euripides' Medea kills her children, but she is a symbol of Mother Earth, of the Gods, and of nature all of which can exert, with no warning and no necessity of explanation, a death upon any or all of us. That which we are given can be taken away."

Abstract
This paper offers an analysis of the poems of Cornelius Eady, which demonstrate the difficulty of being human in an often inhuman world, particularly for black individuals in white mainstream American culture.

From the Paper
"The poems of Cornelius Eady in "Brutal Imagination" are broken into two sections. In the first section, Eady's persona is the black man invented by white consciousness, particularly the black criminal invented by individuals like Susan Smith, Charles Stewart and white American invention, Stepin Fetchit Buckwheat, Aunt Jemima, etc. The second section entitled "The Running Man Poems" illustrates the barriers in white racist society that often tear apart the black family and defer the dreams of black youth."
