I made a few adjustments

I tried to keep the message the same while fixing the little grammatical issues.

Hope this helps

I took the one that Layla posted and added on to some of the tips she had (I very much agreed with the suggestions she made).  Formatting is a big one- line spacing, citations, and quotes.  I also put some general tips on the second to last page.  Good luck, and definitley check out the writing center, you could make a few small changes to your writing style that would make a *huge* difference in your grade.

Comments are nifty.

To the people editing:
Microsoft Word has many built in tools for editing, most notably comments (How-to's: [Word 2003] and [Word 2007]).  Comments result in a much cleaner edit.  I find them very useful.

Thanks a Bunch

Hi! I just wanted to say thanks a bunch to those that helped edit my paper! It really means a lot to me that there are such nice people out there willing to take time out of their busy and hectic schedules to help with my paper. I sent it to the writing center but must admit that I got way better comments and feedback from you guys.
Thanks again! I really, really,  really, appreciate it :) Did I mention becuase of your help I went from a paper the instuctor wouldn't accept to getting an A. Your all super awesome people!!
