Select ONE of the CBRN categories, then pick ONE particular agent from that category and based on our readings this term, place yourself in the role of a terrorist and offer your perspective of how a terrorist event could be conducted in your hometown and then provide your perspective on how to prevent such an attack and support your work by a variety of academic material to give your opinion more validity.

Your essay should approximately 5 pages. You will need to have a cover page or the reference page; however, they are NOT included in the page count for your essay. All references should be cited using the in-text parenthetical Turabian format. Be sure to make a clear thesis statement and argument and use examples to support your analysis.

Appropriate writing requirements using in-text Turabian style formatted citations and compiling a complete reference list in accordance with the Turabian guidance are part of the requirement.
