Proposal of topic: descriptive, detailed outline that includes evidence of preliminary research at least 1 page in length. This is meant to be a form of communication to show me that you have researched this topic enough to have narrowed down specific points and sources to support these points.

You should find at least 3 peer-reviewed sources that you could use in your papers. Peer-reviewed sources are sources of information that have been reviewed by peers of the author to determine its validity and its reliability. Books published by university presses or articles published in academic journals are considered peer-reviewed. The LCC library database has a search option for this. Remember that these sources do not need to be directly about your topic though they do need to support your overall perspective on your topic.
