Citations

Your answer must be your own work. You should not just copy and paste information as your answer. Rather, explain things in your own words and copy and paste only when necessary. If you copy or rely upon information from a source in your answer, be sure to cite to that source in your answer. You need to be sure to provide an adequate citation to any source of information that you rely upon in drafting your memo. An adequate citation here simply means some form of citation that allows the grader to accurately determine the source of the information cited.

Also, you should use the original source of information to answer the questions in this assignment, which means the actual state statutes, regulations, or agency guidance statements themselves, or some official state agency explanation (like an agency website that explains the requirements). You should not rely on other sources of information that may explain the requirements to answer the questions. You may use other sources as a resource to help you find the original source, but you must find and rely upon the original source in your answer.
