broad employee engagement, innovation and business success.

variety of attributes, backgrounds, cultures, identities and ideas
that people bring with them.
1. Monsanto’s mission is to create an inclusive culture which
starts at the top. The Management Advisory Committee (MAC)

Work place Diversity-
1. We piloted a yearlong sponsorship initiative, pairing 22 high-
potential “protégés” with an individual member of the MIDC.
Protégés met with their assigned sponsors once a month for
advanced mentoring while also participating in accelerated
professional development sessions. Participants reported feeling

4. more engaged, more visible and better positioned for future
roles within the organization. Six were placed on special project
teams, four had their roles expanded, two obtained new
leadership roles, one was placed on an external board of
directors and one traveled internationally for greater exposure
to senior leaders.

series of face to-face and virtual workshops designed to help
leaders and employees identify their own unconscious biases
and offset associated negative effects
1. Business Resource Networks. A key example of our culture
of inclusion is the Business Resource Networks (BRNs) we
support. These employee-led groups enhance and diversify our
company through member focused initiatives including careers,
growth and progression and connecting with customers and
communities. Approximately 15 percent of our global employee
base is a member of one of these employee led groups. In 2015,
our BRNs included:
1. Access – Supports employees, their family members and our
customers with visible and non-obvious disabilities.
1. African-Americans in Monsanto
1. Encompass – Provides an environment of support, learning,
sharing and communication for Monsanto’s lesbian, gay,

2310 World Literature Fall
Writing Assignments (20% each)
Shakespeare Essay
For your first essay, you will answer one of the questions below
about Shakespeare’s The Tempest and support your answer with
evidence from the play. The length of your essay should be
between 2-4 pages. You should include a Works Cited page that

8. lists the play but you may not use or cite any other sources. The
essay and Works Cited should be formatted according to MLA
Guidelines and use Times New Roman in a 12pt font.
Topic #1:
Prospero was always interested in studying and learning, and he
applied these interests to his magical books on the island. He
uses the powers he gained from the books to teach his enemies a
lesson. Was Prospero simply delighting in the use of his
magical powers? If so, is it logical to think he will just give
them up as he claims he will? Why, or why not? Cite examples
from the play to support your response.
Topic #2:
Does Prospero truly undergo a "transformation" by the end of
The Tempest? What is the evidence to prove or disprove this?
Close Reading Essays
Texts: Things Fall Apart; Selection from Colonial and
PostcolonialShort Fiction
To do a close reading, you choose a specific passage and
analyze it in fine detail, as if with a magnifying glass. You then
comment on points of style and on your reactions as a reader.
Close reading is important because it is the building block for
larger analysis. Your thoughts evolve not from someone else's
truth about the reading, but from your own observations. The
more closely you can observe, the more original and exact your
ideas will be. To begin your close reading, ask yourself several
specific questions about the passage. The following questions
are not a formula, but a starting point for your own thoughts.
When you arrive at some answers, you are ready to organize and
write. You should organize your close reading like any other
kind of essay.
If you need HELP! getting started:
· Does an imagehere remind you of an image elsewhere in the

9. book? Where? What's the connection?
· How might this image fit into the pattern of the book as a
whole?
· Could this passage symbolize the entire work? Could this
passage serve as a microcosm--a little picture--of what's taking
place in the whole work?
· Are there metaphors (words that represent something else
without using like or as)? What kinds?
· Is there one controlling metaphor? If not, how many different
metaphors are there, and in what order do they occur? How
might that be significant?
· How might objects represent something else?
· Do any of the objects, colors, animals, or plants appearing in
the passage have traditional connotations or meaning? What
about religious or biblical significance?
· If there are multiple symbols in the work, could we read the
entire passage as having allegorical meaning (deeper moral or
spiritual meaning) beyond the literal level?
What to do:
1) Format your paper according to MLA style guidelines (see
owl.english.purdue.edu/owl if you need help). Please remember
to double space and print only in Times New Roman, black ink,
12 point font.
2) Select a passage no longer than 4 lines to analyze; place this
quotation at the top of the page in quotation marks. Please
include the page number.
3) Compose a 2-3 page close reading on your passage using the
definition and questions above.
4) You may use the first person, but only on a limited basis.
5) Only hard copies in class are acceptable.
6) No outside resources should be or may be used in your

10. analysis.
