For these exercises, you are assumed to know how to form full
citations for various types of sources. When in doubt, consult the

index to the Bluebook. For purposes of these exercises, create the
citation that would go into a footnote in an academic article following
the typeface conventions and rules from the main pages of the
Bluebook. Although most footnote citations in academic articles begin
with some sort of signal, for purposes of these exercises, do not
include a signal unless one is provided for you.

your footnote twenty-four and direct your reader to pages 1270
