Each student is required to complete the term project, which is a 15-20 page (not counting the cover, abstract and reference page) research paper done in proper APA format. The research paper will contain a thesis statement and a annotated bibliography. See the research paper’s topic and thesis statement below. Be careful not to make blanket statements - you want to show or explore if that is the case in proving your thesis statement.

Research paper topic: Police de-escalation tactics

Thesis statement: Police officers are quicker to use deadly force than de-escalating dangerous situations involving African American citizens compared to other races.
