Roots – Sample Outline
Central Question (adapted from a previous offering of this course): Discuss how at least two of the previous four issues discussed in this course – environmental change, globalization, racial inequality, and the War on Terror – contribute to our historical understanding of the ongoing civil war in Darfur.
The sample detailed outline is what follows. Note that the thesis, sub-arguments, and evidence all appear as complete sentences. Each layer of the outline contains at least two points.

Use the ruler at the top of the page to align sections appropriately, using uniform indentation.
