Review questions for consideration for the final exam on your blog

For our final exam I think we should have an essay instead of a final. I think in the essay we should use 2 to 3 of the required 5 books we had to read for support as well as use 2-5 of the required short readings we had to support your paper as well. The paper should either be a comparison/contrast of the readings or you can pick an argument/ generalization and argue it by using the books and readings to support it. The essay length or actually topic can be up for discussion.
