Articles must have a publication date within the past 12 months. For research to be useful, it needs to be current. Human capital is a field that is changing at a fast pace; older research may no longer be relevant. Articles must be from practitioner-based (HR Magazine for example) or research- and theorybased (Journal of Management) journals. Articles from commercial sites (anything that ends in .com or .biz) or news outlets such as Fortune, New York Times, or CNN Money are NOT acceptable. If you have questions about what is an acceptable practitioner- or theory-based journal, or how to find one, please visit the business librarians at the Schreyer Business Library on campus or stop and see the librarians in the Business Building Atrium during their specified hours. Articles must be at least two full pages in length; this means that book reviews, editorials, or opinion pieces do not count as a research article. Abstracts must be submitted in hard copy, with a completed cover page (on Angel) and a printed copy of the article attached. All materials should be stapled or paper-clipped together. Assignments will be collected at the beginning of class. Your abstract MUST be handed in at this time; if you come to class late, your abstract will not be accepted.
