Journal Articles

Consider including journal articles as required or supplemental reading for your courses. Search through our ethnic studies/interdisciplinary databases for articles. Just be sure to direct students to the article by permalink (or static URL) rather than posting the PDF directly in your Cougar Course. This will ensure two things: 1) that we are complying with copyright and publisher restrictions, and 2) that our journal usage is counted (this allows us to justify maintaining our subscriptions).
