We prefer now, and will require later, that you submit a pdf. Please don't submit .doc, .docx, or something else, just PDF (portable document format). To create a PDF, read about these alternatives.
If you can't upload using our links, upload via blackboard and send an email note to Professor Astrachan indicating you've done this. But please, try to use the submission system first. It's certainly possible the system could fail to work, but we've tried to ensure it works properly.
