Term Paper

Each student chooses a common disease such as a form of cancer, vascular disease or diabetes of interest to him or her. Every three weeks a "chapter" is due in draft form with references developed in parallel with material from class that uses colon and lung cancer as principle examples. A "chapter" would be on the order of four-five pages of discussion of the key facts about the chosen disease.
