By now everyone should have selected a topic, read a general article and written a thesis statement. If you have done that, you should be working on a rough outline for your research paper. This may change as your research progresses, but it it good to have a road map, so you don't get lost or wander around the library, figuratively speaking.
Tomorrow will be a catch-up day for those of you who are behind or need help. I don't want anyone to feel they are hopelessly behind. I also don't want people who are ready to go to feel that they are being held up. Those who are on schedule can go to the library and start their research. The rest will use the laptops to get up to speed.
One more thing: buy some index cards on which to take notes. You can split a set of 100 with a friend. Or you can sell them individually when less organized people become desperate.
