A brief overview of your interest group (be sure to put its name in bold in the first sentence) and the scope of the article goes here.[1]
The following list of sections should serve as a loose guideline for developing the body of your article. The works cited in references 2-5 are all fake; their purpose is to serve as a formatting model for your own citations.
History
Founding
The American Association of University Professors was founded in 1900 due to the decision of Mrs. Leland Stanford to fire economist Edward Ross. Ross’s opinion on immigrant labor and railroad monopolies did not sit well with the co-founder of Stanford University (AAUP.org). After the incident, Arthur O. Lovejoy and John Dewey organized a meeting in 1915 to form an organization to guarantee academic freedom for faculty members, which gave birth to the AAUP (AAUP.org).
Current objectives and activities
This section should discuss the group's current initiatives and tactics for influencing political outcomes (which may or may not be very different from its original goals and modus operandi).[2]
Organizational structure
This section should describe the group's organizational structure, including its principal leadership positions and their current incumbents.[3]
Achievements
This section should recount the group's major achievements, including but not limited to legislative and/or legal victories.[4]
Public perception and controversies
In developing this final section, be especially careful about maintaining a neutral stance and tone. Your aim should be to document the public's perception of your group and/or any controversies in which it is or has been embroiled without weighing in with your own opinion about them.
