Yes, it supports the other sources as

·         Is there any evidence from Source A that challenges or refutes any of the claims made in the other sources?

I don’t think so.

·         How does Source A help the reader to better understand the other sources?

It opens up the paper.  The source mentions service organizations and how they think what “quality” means.  The article mentioned that “completing a college degree should mean some measurable improvement in student learning, social skills, social contacts, writing skills, reading skills, critical thinking, or other attributes that are consistent with the mission of the institution”.  After reading this one could see how service organizations would be useful in accomplishing this.

·         Imagine your sources as people you are introducing to each other for the first time.  How would you introduce them to each other?

Opening up with Source A will bring into focus the questions I wish to explore in my paper.  With my other sources I can go off how service organizations are a great way to improve the quality in schools, as well as answer my questions.
