I did APA once I believe, if that. I'm quickly leaning towards footnoting as my perfered citing style. In most of the upper level classes, the profs here don't really care how its cited, and some of them don't even care if the style correctly follows the rules, as long as you get all of the information down, and it is easy to follow.

The only a few times as a certain style been required, and mostly it was footnoting.

20 points for a 15-page paper???!!! That's just wrong...

By the way, I'd be interested in seeing a copy of your paper sometime.

Also, I've forgotten most of MLA from lack of use. My field prefers the APA style, which isn't terribly different, but just cites things in different orders, etc.

I agree about the footnotes deal, but I have no experience with them and she wanted MLA… so … what are ya gonna do….

The paper had very little direction from her other than, “Write a 15 page paper on a current legal issue.” I got mine back today graded, it’s not due till Dec. 2nd, and I got a 20/20 on it…. Rock. Her comments were that she loved it, but she wished I had addressed the laws of copyright more, however, my added personal input more than made up for it….

BTW, I'm slowly reading your MP3 paper. I'm only two pages into it, but you're paper's already making a good case for something . . . using footnotes instead of MLA style citing sources, (using these thingies here). My Communication's prof is having us use them for every paper, and she said, "I hate using MLA. It puts too many words into the body, and it kills the flow." I didn't understand what she meant until I started reading your paper.

Not that it's bad or anything, just a style thing I'm probably going to switch to. BTW, what kind of paper was that suppose be? Research? Position w/evdience? etc?
