philosophy( Test 3: Answer the questions)

nstructions
Do not write your name in the test itself just your student ID.
The lengths for each answer will d But the total number of words should not exceed 1600.
Footnotes should be used for citations only.
All you need to answer these questions are the texts and your note I discourage you from using any outside sources. But if you do, make sure to cite them.
Though you are free to discuss answers to these questions with your classmates, the written material must be your own and stated in your own words. Any suspected plagiarism will be submitted to the Academic Integrity Office.
Failure to follow all of these directions will result in a penalty.

How to Cite
When citing an author, just quote the text, footnote it, and reference the author and the title of the piece youre quoting from. For example:

1 Buchanan, Allen Theories of Secession, p.35

If the next citation uses the same source and but a different page, just write ibid. followed by the new page number. So, for example, suppose in footnote 2, you again want to cite something  Buchanan said in Theories of Secession but this time, from p. 40. Because in footnote 1 you already cited the author and paper, you can just write:

2 ibid., p.40

If after this you cite a different author, do so in full (as in the example of footnote 1). If after that you once again cite Buchanan, you do so in full.
