You are the human resource manager of Bird Dog Freight, a large, long-haul trucking company. It is your responsibility to ensure you consider all legal ramifications of hiring, or not hiring, candidates for employment in order to protect and balance the rights of both the company and the candidate.
You are looking to hire Susan Florence as a new long-haul driver. Susan is a 58-year-old African American with an exceptional resume and extensive long-haul experience.
Your company required a physical as part of the hiring process and during the physical, Susan revealed she has lupus. In his evaluation, the doctor stated concerns that her age and health may affect her driving ability.
First, provide a detailed, written assessment to the Bird Dog Freight CEO describing potential legal concerns regarding Susan’s hiring or non-hiring. This may be in either email or memorandum format. Be sure to explicitly indicate any statutes and laws (federal or from your own state) concerning discrimination that are applicable in this case.
Next, recommend a course of action to the CEO regarding the hiring of Susan, and fully explain your position. Be sure to indicate how Affirmative Action policies may factor into Susan’s hiring or non-hiring. Your recommendation must paint a picture for the CEO so he fully understands the ramifications of hiring or not hiring Susan.

Select an article on a controversial public policy issue from a major publication such as the New York Times, the Washington Post, or another periodical or newspaper. (avoid, for example, politically-motivated sources, cable news, your uncle’s Facebook feedback) Ask these questions of the author of the article, being careful to provide “in text” evidence to support your analysis:
Does the author place the issue in a broad context? How?
Does the author suffer from tunnel vision?
Does the author discount or ignore other perspectives on the issue?
Does the author propose a creative solution to the issue?
Does the author address the issue comprehensively?
How might an interdisciplinary approach improve the author’s treatment of the issue?

Despite increased abilities across developmental realms, including the maturation of pain systems involving self-regulation and the coordination of affect and cognition, the transition to young adulthood is accompanied by higher rates of mortality, greater engagement in health-damaging behaviors, and an increase in chronic conditions.

Assume that an employer’s computer-use policy permits employees to use their company-owned laptops for personal emails and web searches, provided such use does not interfere with company business. Assume further that, when members of the company’s outside sales force have their laptops collected and replaced by newer models, the IT department, in the act of inspecting the old computers and sweeping their hard drives for redistribution to clerical workers, discovers Internet pornography on a salesman’s hard drive. If, as is the case with some corporations such as Wal-Mart, the company has a policy against pornography entering its premises, should the salesman be reported to human resources and disciplined? Suppose that some of the material appears to be “kiddy porn” that violates federal law.
Does this change your answer? If the salesman is fired, does he have the basis for a wrongful discharge action? If he is prosecuted for possessing “kiddy porn,” does he have a viable Fourth/Fourteenth Amendment search-and-seizure defense?
