EASY SUMMERY HW

· Locate a professional article, somehow related to the housing industry/financial crisis of 2008.  The article must come from an academic journal or professional publication.

· Produce a summary of the article. Your summary must be between 300-400 words.  In order to meet the length criteria, you must endeavor to edit effectively.

· The original article must be attached to the submitted summary.

*In order to earn full-credit, you must attach to your summary a copy of the article about which you are writing.

*Note:  A summary is a condensed “re-statement” of an extended idea or argument.  A summary neither analyzes nor offers an opinion of a text; it simply, briefly restates it.  Remember also that a Summary -- because it is the re-telling of another person's work/idea -- must include appropriate source citations.
