Dear Students,
Below are the questions for exam two. Please respond in paragraph form to each question. Each
paragraph response should be 250 words or half of a Google doc page. Single or double space
responses are welcome. You may write your answers on another page and upload it to the class
Gaucho Space site. Suppose you have problems uploading your exam to the Gaucho site; as an
alternative option, email it directly to Lucas (lucasmurgida@umail.ucsb.edu ) by 9:00 AM on
Thursday, September 3rd. Please try to upload the exam directly to Gaucho Space as it helps to
administrate a swifter and potentially less confusing grading process. Thank you for your
understanding.
There are five questions. Each question is worth 5 points.
Many Thanks,
Jen
