Naval War College Writing Guide

Abstract

The objectives of this Guide are modest: first, it seeks to alert students to problems or potential problems about which they had been unaware or insufficiently sensitive; second, it offers suggestions for organizing and writing a graduate- level paper. The construction of a paper is covered initially; elements of "good" writing, in Churchillian terms, are addressed subsequently. At the Naval War College a writing assignment might require extensive research, or it might call for a "think piece." The elements of good writing apply in any event.
