Overall subject 2. What has happened 3. What is happening now 4. What should happen 5.

You must make the chart- you cannot use a chart that has already been made You must cite where you got this information for the chart It must be labeled (titled, x, and y axis) explain what you are measuring You must reference this chart in your paper (ex: As seen in figure A there has been an exponential rise of 62% of sexual violence on college campuses since 2005.)
