Topic Paper: Stratification & Health

***FOR QUALITY OUTPUT ONLY**

**Can be based off of Class, Race, or Gender stratification**

• 3-5 pages, double spaced, 12 point font, standard margins.
• Topical papers will engage with course material and social theory as it applies to the topic. I am NOT giving you a specific question or prompt for these papers. You are expected to think about the topic we have been learning about and write a paper. Generally speaking, these papers will not exhaustively cover everything we have talked about, but will engage on a narrower topic within that and flesh it out thoroughly.
• You must use course materials in your discussion. Be specific in your use. Papers with vague general statements about course materials will receive a low grade.
• You may use outside sources to flesh out your discussion, but are not required to. 
• All sources must be adequately citied, using ASA style.
• You must have a bibliography or works cited page of sources used. This must use ASA style.
