Just Your Average 68-Year-Old College Freshman
A boy like me at Harvard.
“It all depends on your footnotes.” said my professor. Any fool can get the first citation onto a page, he was looking in my direction. The second time you cite the same source you list only author and page, or even better, you can use “Ibid.”
But to give Harvard a real woody, you need one last level of sophistication. Foreign terms should be italicized like this—Ibid (use your imagination, ital doesn’t show on FB). Perfect! You’re as good as admitted, you can start memorizing the Crimson fight song. (And to think I almost skipped the lecture that day.)
