Crim 301 Researched Paper

My research topic was on the segregation of inmates that have tested positive for HIV/AIDS. A source that I found very useful was an article entitled "Communtiy-based organizations and HIV Prevention for Incarcerated Populations: Three HIV Prevention Program Models and AIDS Education and Prevention in Correctional Settings" by Tanya Ehrmann. The process in writing my research paper was long and at times frustrating because there are so many elements involved during the process of researching and finding valuable sources that will contribute to your paper. My advice to future students who will be taking Crim 301 would be, make sure that you complete every assignment leading up to the final researched paper because those assignments will only benefit you when you begin to finally write your actual researched paper. Also, it is never to early to begin thinking about possibly topics that you are interested in and that can also be used as a topic for your researched paper. Be sure to start your paper early and do it piece by piece so you don't find yourself overwhemed by leaving everything to the last minute. My final piece of advice to future students would be do not procrastinate your researched paper it is worth the majority of your grade and believe me with all the writing that is involved in Crim 301 you do not what to have to take this class over again. Good Luck!!! -Tara Igler
