Think of these memos as executive summaries for your supervisor, but use full
sentences rather than simple word summaries. You may refer to any course-related
materials that assist in formulating your responses, such as lecture slides, required
readings, and textbooks. However, I believe external sources other than the course
materials will not be helpful for you in writing good answers (e.g., internet searches). To
make good case memos, pay close attention to the questions and the Case Memo
Rubric, which will help you identify the directions of your answers. Also, be sure to
provide the basis for your arguments and include references for information different
from your original thought (you don’t need to cite and put references for the cases
themselves because you are exactly engaging in the cases). Each case memo should
range from 2 to 3 pages, single-spaced, with a 12-point font to encourage concise
analysis.
