In a well-developed paper of approximately 1,500 words, provide a narrative and evaluative portrait of the United States between January of 1989 and January of 1993.

The goal of this paper is to incorporate (most) of what
you learned about the George H.W. Bush Presidency into
a capstone paper about the United States during this
time. Additional research is also required (see below)
Unlike the previous assignments, which mostly focused
on an aspect of the George H.W. Bush presidency itself,
this paper focuses not only on the Bush Presidency, but
also on the general state of the United States during
these years.
The text of your final paper may not be repetitive of
previous papers.
Supplemental Requirements for the Capstone Final Research Paper:
***Consult via email with the instructor beforehand about the direction of the paper (recommended)
***Analysis and thoughtful discussion based on course material
***Analysis and discussion based on outside research sources
***Arguments should be supported by both factual evidence, and analysis
***Discussion of politics, societal trends, and culture during this time. (You should discuss all three, but
you need not give them equal weight. Discussion of foreign policy is optional)
***The paper should take the form a continuous, thoughtful, varied argument, leading towards a
unique and revealing conclusion
**Citation and footnoting according to the guidelines of the Chicago Manual of Style. (See Syllabus)
**Plagiarism is prohibited. Submission of any work that is not your own, including making just a
sentence or two from another source and copying it word-for-word is reason enough for a failing
grade, or a grade of zero.
As long as the above requirements are satisfied, each student has the freedom to produce a work that is
original and unique, both in its scope and in its emphasis.
In this capstone paper, students will be expected to:
** provide a narrative account of their subject
**analyze the subjects various aspects
