A random sample of 1% students at a small university were asked a series of questions such as their status as an American or international student, major, gender, age, year in school, and current GPA. Other questions were asked about levels of satisfaction with campus parking, campus housing, and campus dining. Finally, students were asked if they planned to attend graduate school within five years of their college graduation. These data are contained in the data file Finstad and Lie Study, a. Estimate the population grade point average with 95% confidence level. b. Estimate the population proportion of students who were very dissatisfied (code 1) or moderately dissatisfied (code 2) with parking facilities on campus. Use a 90%o confidence level. c. Estimate the population proportion of students who were at least moderately satisfied (codes 4 and 5) with on-campus food service. The manager of Florin's Flower Mart obtained customer information that is stored in the data file Florin a. Estimate the mean age of the store's customers. b. Estimate the population proportion of customers that are dissatisfied with the store's delivery system. c. Estimate the population mean amount charged to a Visa credit card. Question.docx The sheet EZDescription describes the variables for this question. The data are on unemployment claims in Anderson (IN) from 1980 through November 1988. In 1984, an enterprise zone (“EZ”) was located in Anderson (as well as other cities in Indiana). An EZ provides “incentives for businesses to locate or expand in these distressed and blighted areas, which are often traditional downtown areas or old industrial and manufacturing areas that have gone through a protracted period of decline. Typically, EZ incentives consist of tax instruments, such as property tax abatements, income tax deductions and credits for employment creation, capital investment, and income creation in the EZs” (Indiana Business Journal). 1. Regress ln(uclms) on a linear time trend and 11 (!) monthly dummy variables. What was the overall trend in unemployment claims over this period? Interpret the coefficient on time? Is there evidence of seasonality in unemployment claims? 2. Add ez, a dummy variable equal to one in the months Anderson had an EZ, to the regression in part (1). Does having the EZ seem to decrease unemployment claims? 3. What assumptions do you need to make to attribute the effect in part (2) to the creation of an EZ?

This study aimed to understand how macroeconomic indicators like consumer confidence, stock market values, interest rates, unemployment rates, and consumer credit impacted attendance and revenue at regional theme parks. Annual data from 2007-2012 for Cedar Fair and Six Flags theme parks was analyzed using multiple regression to see if correlations existed between the macroeconomic variables and attendance/revenue at a statistically significant level. The results could help theme parks predict consumer spending patterns during different economic conditions and improve strategic planning.

This document analyzes Minnesota's Earned Income Credit program and its utilization by current and former welfare recipients. It finds that while 37.7% of recipients receive the credit, 64.6% participate. It also finds that utilization increases with time and income, and those with lower education and non-white groups utilize at slower rates. The analysis provides important information about a program that involves significant money and people, and whether earned income credits are effective.

Learning Team Assignment: The Real Economy in the Long RunPurpose of Assignment
Students examine the long-run determinants of both the level and the growth rate of real GDP per person and the factors that determine the productivity of workers and what governments might do to improve the productivity of their citizens. Students will learn how saving and investment are coordinated by the loanable funds market and will see the effects of taxes and government deficits on saving, investment, the accumulation of capital, and ultimately, the growth rate of output. Students will be introduced to tools that people use when they participate in financial markets. Students will see how people compare different sums of money at different points in time, how they manage risk, and how these concepts combine to help determine the value of a financial asset, such as a share of stock. Students will be introduced to the labor market and how economists measure the performance of the labor market using unemployment statistics. Students will address a number of sources of unemployment and some policies that the government might use to lower certain types of unemployment.

1. Individuals living in high-poverty areas perform worse than those living in low-poverty areas on a wide
range of outcomes such as earnings, health conditions and education levels. Motivated by such dis-
parities, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) o↵ered housing vouchers to
low-income families. These housing vouchers pay a large portion of the rents and utilities (e.g. Section
8). Image that you are a policy maker trying to evaluate the e↵ectiveness of the housing vouchers.
Suppose you are most interested in the long-term impacts of housing vouchers on children who were
young when their families received the voucher.
(a) (8 points) You want to focus on the impact of housing vouchers on children’s future earnings. Your
colleague, another policy maker, suggests you to compare the average future earnings for children
whose families received a housing voucher with those whose families didn’t received a housing
voucher. Do you think your colleague’s suggestion is a good idea? Why?

To get consideration for full credit, you must:
· Follow directions;
· Show all work required to arrive at answer (statistical calculations often require multiple steps, so you need to write these down, not just skip to the final answer)
· Use appropriate statistical notation at all times (e.g. if you are calculating a population mean, begin with the equation for population mean)
· Use units in your answer, where appropriate (e.g. a mean time would be “6.5 hours” rather than just “6.5”)

Part 3: Inferential Statistics Option 1: Manufacturing Database
1. The National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) contracts with your consulting company to determine the estimate of mean number of production workers. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean number of production workers. What is the point estimate? How much is the margin of error in the estimate?
2. Suppose the average number of employees per industry group in the manufacturing database is believed to be less than 150 (1000s). Test this belief as the alternative hypothesis by using the 140 SIC Code industries given in the database as the sample. Let α = .10. Assume that the number of employees per industry group are normally distributed in the population.
3. You are also required to determine whether there is a significant difference between mean Value Added by the Manufacturer and the mean Cost of Materials in manufacturing using alpha of 0.01.
4. You are requested to determine whether there is a significantly greater variance among values of Cost of Materials than of End-of-Year Inventories.
Option 2: Hospital Database
1. As a consultant, you need to use the Hospital database and construct a 90% confidence interval to estimate the average census for hospitals. Change the level of confidence to 99%. What happened to the interval? Did the point estimate change?
2. Determine the sample proportion of the Hospital database under the variable “service” that are “general medical” (category 1). From this statistic, construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the population proportion of hospitals that are “general medical.” What is the point estimate? How much error is there in the interval?
3. Suppose you want to “prove” that the average hospital in the United States averages more than 700 births per year. Use the hospital database as your sample and test this hypothesis. Let alpha be 0.01.
4. On average, do hospitals in the United States employ fewer than 900 personnel? Use the hospital database as your sample and an alpha of 0.10 to test this figure as the alternative hypothesis. Assume that the number of births and number of employees in the hospitals are normally distributed in the population.
Option 3: Consumer Food
1. Suppose you want to test to determine if the average annual food spending for a household in the Midwest region of the U.S. is more than $8,000. Use the Midwest region data and a 1% level of significance to test this hypothesis. Assume that annual food spending is normally distributed in the population.
2. Test to determine if there is a significant difference between households in a metro area and households outside metro areas in annual food spending. Let α = 0.01.
3. The Consumer Food database contains data on Annual Food Spending, Annual Household Income, and Non-Mortgage Household Debt broken down by Region and Location. Using Region as an independent variable with four classification levels ( ...
Nonprofit Financial Information OnlineIn the United States, the .docx
Nonprofit Financial Information Online
In the United States, the IRS requires that all 501c3 organizations file a tax return of sorts. The form nonprofit organizations are required to fill out is called a 990, and as public organizations, these forms are available to the public. Since 1999, organizations that file 990s have been required to provide copies to anyone who requests. Unfortunately, some nonprofits weren’t aware of this, and when asked, they sometimes refused to disclose what they perceived to be private information (although it is NOT).
To ensure that the information is available, the IRS makes information from 990s available through two outlets.
· Guidestar: www.guidestar.org
· National Center for Charitable Statistics: http://nccsdataweb.urban.org/FAQ/index.php?category=31
Guidestar is the place to look if you want a scanned copy of the complete tax return for a single organization. NCCS is a national repository for compiled data on the nonprofit sector in the U.S., but the datasets do not include all of the information from the 990s. While Guidestar makes scanned copies of individual tax returns available, NCCS makes the data from 990s available in a database format. In other words, if I were interested in contributing money to the World Wildlife Fund and wanted to look at their financial information, I’d probably go to Guidestar. However, if I wanted to conduct an analysis of all nonprofit environmental organizations, I’d go to NCCS.
While Guidestar and NCSS are great sources for data, they do not help in evaluating the financial status of an organization. A good online source of evaluating nonprofit organizations is CharityNavigator.org. What makes charity navigator particularly interesting is its use of financial ratios and rating system. The financial ratios for each of these factors is calculated from financial data on each organization’s 990.
Individual Paper 3: Financial Analysis
One technique used to assess an organization’s financial management is ratio analysis, which focuses on mathematical comparisons between or among accounts on a set of financial statements. While an organization’s size must still be taken into account, financial ratios allow a rough comparison of both large and small organizations. For example, looking at the expenses for Marist and Harvard isn’t particularly useful. However, looking at the ratio of program expenses to total expenses allows us to determine how much of each organization’s budget is used for administrative expenses versus mission critical programs. Ratios also represent benchmarks that organizations can use internally to analyze themselves over multiple years. Fortunately for us, IRS form 990 represents a quick-and-dirty set of financial statements for nonprofit organizations in the U.S.
There are many types of financial ratios for evaluating nonprofit organizations. For this assignment we will examine four types:

Financial well-being-survey-results
Most Canadians are doing reasonably well financially, with an average financial well-being score of 66 out of 100. Three quarters of Canadians scored above 50, indicating they are somewhat or securely financially. However, many Canadians struggle with financial resilience for the future and feeling financially comfortable, even if they can meet current commitments. Psychological factors like confidence and attitudes towards money are strongly related to financial well-being, more so than economic factors alone. Building buffers and preparing for financial setbacks could help improve Canadians' financial well-being.

Scenario: Upon successful completion of the MBA program, imagine you work in the analytics department for a consulting company. Your assignment is to analyze one of the following databases:
· Manufacturing
· Hospital
· Consumer Food
· Financial
Select one of the databases based on the information in the Signature Assignment Options.
Provide a 1,600-word detailed, four part, statistical report with the following sections:
· Part 1 - Preliminary Analysis
· Part 2 - Examination of Descriptive Statistics
· Part 3 - Examination of Inferential Statistics
· Part 4 - Conclusion/Recommendations
Part 1 - Preliminary Analysis
Generally, as a statistics consultant, you will be given a problem and data. At times, you may have to gather additional data. For this assignment, assume all the data is already gathered for you.
State the objective:
· What are the questions you are trying to address?
Describe the population in the study clearly and in sufficient detail:
· What is the sample?
Discuss the types of data and variables:
· Are the data quantitative or qualitative?
· What are levels of measurement for the data?
Part 2 - Descriptive Statistics
Examine the given data.
Present the descriptive statistics (mean, median, mode, range, standard deviation, variance, CV, and five-number summary).
Identify any outliers in the data.
Present any graphs or charts you think are appropriate for the data.
Note: Ideally, we want to assess the conditions of normality too. However, for the purpose of this exercise, assume data is drawn from normal populations.
Part 3 - Inferential Statistics
Use the Part 3: Inferential Statistics document.
· Create (formulate) hypotheses
· Run formal hypothesis tests
· Make decisions. Your decisions should be stated in non-technical terms.
Hint: A final conclusion saying "reject the null hypothesis" by itself without explanation is basically worthless to those who hired you. Similarly, stating the conclusion is false or rejected is not sufficient.
Part 4 - Conclusion and Recommendations
Include the following:
· What are your conclusions?
· What do you infer from the statistical analysis?
· State the interpretations in non-technical terms. What information might lead to a different conclusion?
· Are there any variables missing?
· What additional information would be valuable to help draw a more certain conclusion?
Format your assignment consistent with APA format.

Role played by Social Security in employee retirement
Social security is mostly known to provide financial support to the retired workers. Social security does not only provide monetary support for the retired workers, but also for the survivors of employees that pass on before retirement. The program also provides disability compensation for employees that becomes unable to earn a living. If the employee has any dependents are eligible for this financial support. The main role of social security is to make sure that the future of an active member is secured from financial constraints that may come on his way after retirement (Young, 2010).
The program is based on contributions that active members make into the program during the working life. For someone to qualify for social security program you require a maximum of 40 credits although the extra credits that may be earned does not in any way increase the amount of benefits. The financial benefits that an individual receives are based on their average indexed m ...

For this Portfolio Project, you will write a paper about "John Adams" as well as any event in U.S. history that is relevant to your major area of study or of interest to you. You will write about John Adams from the perspective of another historical personality who lived at the same time as the person or event you are going to describe.
For your historical personality, try to select someone from an under-represented population (examples of possible perspectives include that of Anne Hutchinson, Pocahontas, or Sojourner Truth). This analysis is to make you think about how events/people’s actions were interpreted at the time.

Remember that you will be writing from the perspective of a historical person about another person or an event from a period of U.S. history up to Reconstruction. From your historical person’s perspective, provide a thorough summary of the person or event you’ve chosen to write about, including the incidents that took place and any key individuals involved or affected.
Address the general importance of the person or event in the context of U.S. history.
Now, explain specifically how the person or event changed “your” daily life—“you” being the historical persona you have adopted.
Think long-term: How will the person or the event you are describing make a long-term impact in the lives of people who are in the under-represented group to which your historical person/perspective belongs?
Paper Requirements:
Your paper must be four to six pages, not including the required references and title pages.
Use at least five sources, not including the textbook. Include a scholarly journal article. Include at least one
primary
source from those identified in the syllabus.
Definition of a Primary Source
: A primary source is any source, document or artifact that was created at the time of the event. It was usually created by someone who witnessed the event, lived during or even shortly afterwards, or somehow would have first-hand knowledge of that event. A secondary source, by contrast, is written by a historian or someone writing about the event after it happened.
Have an introduction and strong thesis statement. Make use of support and examples supporting your thesis
Finish with a forceful conclusion reiterating your main idea.
Format your paper according to the
CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements
(Links to an external site.)

To get consideration for full credit, you must:
· Follow directions;
· Show all work required to arrive at answer (statistical calculations often require multiple steps, so you need to write these down, not just skip to the final answer)
· Use appropriate statistical notation at all times (e.g. if you are calculating a population mean, begin with the equation for population mean)
· Use units in your answer, where appropriate (e.g. a mean time would be “6.5 hours” rather than just “6.5”)

Part 3: Inferential Statistics Option 1: Manufacturing Database
1. The National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) contracts with your consulting company to determine the estimate of mean number of production workers. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean number of production workers. What is the point estimate? How much is the margin of error in the estimate?
2. Suppose the average number of employees per industry group in the manufacturing database is believed to be less than 150 (1000s). Test this belief as the alternative hypothesis by using the 140 SIC Code industries given in the database as the sample. Let α = .10. Assume that the number of employees per industry group are normally distributed in the population.
3. You are also required to determine whether there is a significant difference between mean Value Added by the Manufacturer and the mean Cost of Materials in manufacturing using alpha of 0.01.
4. You are requested to determine whether there is a significantly greater variance among values of Cost of Materials than of End-of-Year Inventories.
Option 2: Hospital Database
1. As a consultant, you need to use the Hospital database and construct a 90% confidence interval to estimate the average census for hospitals. Change the level of confidence to 99%. What happened to the interval? Did the point estimate change?
2. Determine the sample proportion of the Hospital database under the variable “service” that are “general medical” (category 1). From this statistic, construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the population proportion of hospitals that are “general medical.” What is the point estimate? How much error is there in the interval?
3. Suppose you want to “prove” that the average hospital in the United States averages more than 700 births per year. Use the hospital database as your sample and test this hypothesis. Let alpha be 0.01.
4. On average, do hospitals in the United States employ fewer than 900 personnel? Use the hospital database as your sample and an alpha of 0.10 to test this figure as the alternative hypothesis. Assume that the number of births and number of employees in the hospitals are normally distributed in the population.
Option 3: Consumer Food
1. Suppose you want to test to determine if the average annual food spending for a household in the Midwest region of the U.S. is more than $8,000. Use the Midwest region data and a 1% level of significance to test this hypothesis. Assume that annual food spending is normally distributed in the population.
2. Test to determine if there is a significant difference between households in a metro area and households outside metro areas in annual food spending. Let α = 0.01.

Nonprofit Financial Information OnlineIn the United States, the .docx
Nonprofit Financial Information Online
In the United States, the IRS requires that all 501c3 organizations file a tax return of sorts. The form nonprofit organizations are required to fill out is called a 990, and as public organizations, these forms are available to the public. Since 1999, organizations that file 990s have been required to provide copies to anyone who requests. Unfortunately, some nonprofits weren’t aware of this, and when asked, they sometimes refused to disclose what they perceived to be private information (although it is NOT).
To ensure that the information is available, the IRS makes information from 990s available through two outlets.
· Guidestar: www.guidestar.org
· National Center for Charitable Statistics: http://nccsdataweb.urban.org/FAQ/index.php?category=31
Guidestar is the place to look if you want a scanned copy of the complete tax return for a single organization. NCCS is a national repository for compiled data on the nonprofit sector in the U.S., but the datasets do not include all of the information from the 990s. While Guidestar makes scanned copies of individual tax returns available, NCCS makes the data from 990s available in a database format. In other words, if I were interested in contributing money to the World Wildlife Fund and wanted to look at their financial information, I’d probably go to Guidestar. However, if I wanted to conduct an analysis of all nonprofit environmental organizations, I’d go to NCCS.
While Guidestar and NCSS are great sources for data, they do not help in evaluating the financial status of an organization. A good online source of evaluating nonprofit organizations is CharityNavigator.org. What makes charity navigator particularly interesting is its use of financial ratios and rating system. The financial ratios for each of these factors is calculated from financial data on each organization’s 990.
Individual Paper 3: Financial Analysis
One technique used to assess an organization’s financial management is ratio analysis, which focuses on mathematical comparisons between or among accounts on a set of financial statements. While an organization’s size must still be taken into account, financial ratios allow a rough comparison of both large and small organizations. For example, looking at the expenses for Marist and Harvard isn’t particularly useful. However, looking at the ratio of program expenses to total expenses allows us to determine how much of each organization’s budget is used for administrative expenses versus mission critical programs. Ratios also represent benchmarks that organizations can use internally to analyze themselves over multiple years. Fortunately for us, IRS form 990 represents a quick-and-dirty set of financial statements for nonprofit organizations in the U.S.
There are many types of financial ratios for evaluating nonprofit organizations. For this assignment we will examine four types:

Financial well-being-survey-results
Most Canadians are doing reasonably well financially, with an average financial well-being score of 66 out of 100. Three quarters of Canadians scored above 50, indicating they are somewhat or securely financially. However, many Canadians struggle with financial resilience for the future and feeling financially comfortable, even if they can meet current commitments. Psychological factors like confidence and attitudes towards money are strongly related to financial well-being, more so than economic factors alone. Building buffers and preparing for financial setbacks could help improve Canadians' financial well-being.

Scenario: Upon successful completion of the MBA program, imagine you work in the analytics department for a consulting company. Your assignment is to analyze one of the following databases:
· Manufacturing
· Hospital
· Consumer Food
· Financial
Select one of the databases based on the information in the Signature Assignment Options.
Provide a 1,600-word detailed, four part, statistical report with the following sections:
· Part 1 - Preliminary Analysis
· Part 2 - Examination of Descriptive Statistics
· Part 3 - Examination of Inferential Statistics
· Part 4 - Conclusion/Recommendations
Part 1 - Preliminary Analysis
Generally, as a statistics consultant, you will be given a problem and data. At times, you may have to gather additional data. For this assignment, assume all the data is already gathered for you.
State the objective:
· What are the questions you are trying to address?
Describe the population in the study clearly and in sufficient detail:
· What is the sample?
Discuss the types of data and variables:
· Are the data quantitative or qualitative?
· What are levels of measurement for the data?
Part 2 - Descriptive Statistics
Examine the given data.
Present the descriptive statistics (mean, median, mode, range, standard deviation, variance, CV, and five-number summary).
Identify any outliers in the data.
Present any graphs or charts you think are appropriate for the data.
Note: Ideally, we want to assess the conditions of normality too. However, for the purpose of this exercise, assume data is drawn from normal populations.
Part 3 - Inferential Statistics
Use the Part 3: Inferential Statistics document.
· Create (formulate) hypotheses
· Run formal hypothesis tests
· Make decisions. Your decisions should be stated in non-technical terms.
Hint: A final conclusion saying "reject the null hypothesis" by itself without explanation is basically worthless to those who hired you. Similarly, stating the conclusion is false or rejected is not sufficient.
Part 4 - Conclusion and Recommendations
Include the following:
· What are your conclusions?
· What do you infer from the statistical analysis?
· State the interpretations in non-technical terms. What information might lead to a different conclusion?
· Are there any variables missing?
· What additional information would be valuable to help draw a more certain conclusion?
Format your assignment consistent with APA format.

Role played by Social Security in employee retirement
Social security is mostly known to provide financial support to the retired workers. Social security does not only provide monetary support for the retired workers, but also for the survivors of employees that pass on before retirement. The program also provides disability compensation for employees that becomes unable to earn a living. If the employee has any dependents are eligible for this financial support. The main role of social security is to make sure that the future of an active member is secured from financial constraints that may come on his way after retirement (Young, 2010).
The program is based on contributions that active members make into the program during the working life. For someone to qualify for social security program you require a maximum of 40 credits although the extra credits that may be earned does not in any way increase the amount of benefits. The financial benefits that an individual receives are based on their average indexed m ...

An annuity is defined as a series of payments of a fixed amount for a specific number of periods. Thus, $100 a year for 10 years is an annuity, but $100 in Year 1, $200 in Year 2, and $400 in Years 3 through 10 does not constitute an annuity. However, the entire series does contain an annuity.

For this Portfolio Project, you will write a paper about John A.docx
For this Portfolio Project, you will write a paper about "John Adams" as well as any event in U.S. history that is relevant to your major area of study or of interest to you. You will write about John Adams from the perspective of another historical personality who lived at the same time as the person or event you are going to describe.
For your historical personality, try to select someone from an under-represented population (examples of possible perspectives include that of Anne Hutchinson, Pocahontas, or Sojourner Truth). This analysis is to make you think about how events/people’s actions were interpreted at the time.
Key Points::
Remember that you will be writing from the perspective of a historical person about another person or an event from a period of U.S. history up to Reconstruction. From your historical person’s perspective, provide a thorough summary of the person or event you’ve chosen to write about, including the incidents that took place and any key individuals involved or affected.
Address the general importance of the person or event in the context of U.S. history.
Now, explain specifically how the person or event changed “your” daily life—“you” being the historical persona you have adopted.
Think long-term: How will the person or the event you are describing make a long-term impact in the lives of people who are in the under-represented group to which your historical person/perspective belongs?
Paper Requirements:
Your paper must be four to six pages, not including the required references and title pages.
Use at least five sources, not including the textbook. Include a scholarly journal article. Include at least one
primary
source from those identified in the syllabus.
Definition of a Primary Source
: A primary source is any source, document or artifact that was created at the time of the event. It was usually created by someone who witnessed the event, lived during or even shortly afterwards, or somehow would have first-hand knowledge of that event. A secondary source, by contrast, is written by a historian or someone writing about the event after it happened.
Have an introduction and strong thesis statement. Make use of support and examples supporting your thesis
Finish with a forceful conclusion reiterating your main idea.
Format your paper according to the
CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements
(Links to an external site.)

For this paper, discuss the similarities and differences of the impacts of the causes of the 2008 Great Recession and the current world crisis with the CoVID-19 virus*
How did the regulations you've studied over the past few chapters and in the Financial Crisis Chapter (Chapter 12) prepare banks and other financial institutions to better weather the effects of the stay-at-home orders and other impacts of the pandemic? Are there other regulations that could be placed on the banking industry that would make sense and help them through these trying times?
*Note: I am not trying to downplay or minimize in any way the "human" impact or any other non-economic impacts of the virus; this paper is just focusing on one component of the costs, among the many different impacts (perhaps much more important impacts)

For this paper, discuss the similarities and differences of the impa.docx
The document asks the student to discuss the similarities and differences between the impacts of the causes of the 2008 Great Recession and the current CoVID-19 crisis. It prompts the student to consider how banking regulations studied in previous chapters prepared financial institutions for the pandemic's effects and whether additional regulations could help the banking industry weather challenging times.

For this paper choose two mythological narratives that we have exami.docx
For this paper choose two mythological narratives that we have examined so far in this course, or that you are otherwise personally familiar with. The two myths that you choose should have one or more elements in common, possibly including (but not limited to):
Overarching story (e.g., creation, flood) or story elements (e.g., descent into the underworld, establishment of divine rulership, rapture of mortals by gods, divine disguise)
Narrative structure (e.g., repetitive patterns, discursion)
Themes (e.g., love, jealousy, mortality, revenge, mutability/transformation, limits of human power/knowledge)
Characters (e.g., tricksters)
Cultural functions (e.g., reinforcement of societal norms, explanation of origins of society, explanation of natural phenomena, incorporation in ritual practices, entertainment)
Compare and contrast the two myths you choose, taking into consideration the various elements noted above and any others you deem relevant. (In making comparisons, you do not necessarily need to apply the specifically "comparativist" approach discussed in the course as one historical strand of mythological analysis.)
While you are welcome to reference external sources, this is not a research paper and the use of secondary sources is not required or expected. If you choose to examine a myth not discussed in the course, however, please indicate the source from which you have taken this.

Top of Form
1. Some common stereotypes that coincide with the LGBTQ community are promiscuous, non-religious, flamboyant, mentally ill, high sex drives, etc.
2. The media plays a role in establishing these stereotypes because the general public is always watching these shows, reading the news, and listening to stories about different cultures and groups and media that they may not see or interact with in their lives. Therefore, media is an outlet to show these things in a easy way to gain knowledge about people without meeting people face-to-face apart of these groups when sometimes the stereotypes shown can't represent everyone in those groups.
3. Currently, in Marvel's Runaways, that ended in December, there are two lesbian superheros that share a kiss at the end of a season. Karolina, one of the characters, wants to get away from her childhood of religious upbringing and wants to pursue her own life with her superpower of glowing colors. Nico is shown with a Gothic appearance and can be seen as aggressive but down to earth as well. The War at Home was a television show on Fox and a character named Kenny, who is sixteen years old, is kicked out of his house by his parents after finding out he is gay.
a. There are some differences in the characters as Karolina is more flamboyant and colorful, compared to Nico who is goth and likes to remain strictly to business. Kenny is quiet most of the time about his life, especially about his gay crush until his p.

This is the Case Study I chose:
Martin is a 21 year-old business major at a large university. Over the past few weeks his family and friends have noticed increasingly bizarre behaviors. On many occasions they’ve overheard him whispering in an agitated voice, even though there is no one nearby. Lately, he has refused to answer or make calls on his cell phone, claiming that if he does it will activate a deadly chip that was implanted in his brain by evil aliens. His parents have tried to get him to go with them to a psychiatrist for an evaluation, but he refuses. He has accused them on several occasions of conspiring with the aliens to have him killed so they can remove his brain and put it inside one of their own. He has stopped attended classes altogether. He is now so far behind in his coursework that he will fail if something doesn’t change very soon. Although Martin occasionally has a few beers with his friends, he’s never been known to abuse alcohol or use drugs. He does, however, have an estranged aunt who has been in and out of psychiatric hospitals over the years due to erratic and bizarre behavior.
The Psychological disorder is: SCHIZOPHRENIA

For this assignment, you will discuss how you see the Design Princip.docx
For this assignment, you will discuss how you see the Design Principles used in a 2D print. You can select a 2D print from your home, workplace, or use the CSU Art Appreciation LibGuide to find a print in an online museum. Take a photograph of the print or save an image of the print, and include it in the worksheet.In Unit II, our assignment was to describe an artwork using the Visual Elements. We can think of the Design Principles as a way that the artist organized the Visual Elements. Instead of focusing on the small parts of the artwork (like line, shape, and mass) the Design Principles look at the whole artwork and how all the elements work together. Provide a detailed description of the design principles in your 2D print, using full and complete sentences. For Design Principles, make sure you describe how the artist used the ones in Chapter 5: unity and variety, balance, emphasis, repetition and rhythm, and scale and proportion. Questions to consider are included below:
Unity: what elements work together to make a harmonious whole?
Variety: What creates diversity?
Balance: Is it symmetrical or asymmetrical?
Emphasis: What is the focal point?
Repetition and rhythm: Is an element repeated?
Scale and proportion: Are the objects in proportion to each other?
Be sure to describe exactly where in the artwork you see each Principle. You'll want to describe each artwork using the terms we learned in this unit's reading. Remember to write in complete sentences and use proper grammar.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

A random sample of 1 students at a small university were asked a .docx
- 1. A random sample of 1% students at a small university were asked a series of questions such as their status as an American or international student, major, gender, age, year in school, and current GPA. Other questions were asked about levels of satisfaction with campus parking, campus housing, and campus dining. Finally, students were asked if they planned to attend graduate school within five years of their college graduation. These data are contained in the data file Finstad and Lie Study, a. Estimate the population grade point average with 95% confidence level. b. Estimate the population proportion of students who were very dissatisfied (code 1) or moderately dissatisfied (code 2) with parking facilities on campus. Use a 90%o confidence level. c. Estimate the population proportion of students who were at least moderately satisfied (codes 4 and 5) with on-campus food service. The manager of Florin's Flower Mart obtained customer information that is stored in the data file Florin a. Estimate the mean age of the store's customers. b. Estimate the population proportion of customers that are dissatisfied with the store's delivery system. c. Estimate the population mean amount charged to a Visa credit card.
- 2. Question.docx The sheet EZDescription describes the variables for this question. The data are on unemployment claims in Anderson (IN) from 1980 through November 1988. In 1984, an enterprise zone (“EZ”) was located in Anderson (as well as other cities in Indiana). An EZ provides “incentives for businesses to locate or expand in these distressed and blighted areas, which are often traditional downtown areas or old industrial and manufacturing areas that have gone through a protracted period of decline. Typically, EZ incentives consist of tax instruments, such as property tax abatements, income tax deductions and credits for employment creation, capital investment, and income creation in the EZs” (Indiana Business Journal). 1. Regress ln(uclms) on a linear time trend and 11 (!) monthly dummy variables. What was the overall trend in unemployment claims over this period? Interpret the coefficient on time? Is there evidence of seasonality in unemployment claims? 2. Add ez, a dummy variable equal to one in the months Anderson had an EZ, to the regression in part (1). Does having the EZ seem to decrease unemployment claims? 3. What assumptions do you need to make to attribute the effect in part (2) to the creation of an EZ?
