Gene Editing Is Creating a New World of Designer Babies. Are We Ready for It?

This article discusses recent advances in genetics which may make it possible for humans to select not only the sex of their babies, but possibly many other genes and characteristics. After careful study of the article, you are to write a 2 PAGE PAPER, DOUBLE SPACED, no font larger than 12, giving your personal support of or arguing against modifying or selecting a baby’s genetic makeup. If there are specific instances which you think would be appropriate for genetic modification, but others which would not be appropriate, you may argue both for and against modification, with rationale for your opinions. You are not required to present any other research findings. However, if you wish to use other research to support your argument, feel free to do so. This assignment will be submitted via Turnit in and checked for plagiarism.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
