Option 1: The American Dream lecture in Week 1 points out that Poor Richard’s Almanac was an annual publication that included calendar lists, home recipes, weather forecasts etc. What made Franklin’s almanac unlike other almanacs was the inclusion of Franklin’s witty parables and humorous writings. Franklin proposes in “The Way to Wealth” that anyone who works hard, avoids debt, and works toward attaining a virtuous character can be successful and ultimately wealthy—that the American Dream is accessible to all. Watch either The Color Purple or The Great Gatsby (locate the films using Netflix, Amazon, or your local library) and argue why or why not Franklin’s assertions are correct. Provide examples from the film and your own explanations to support your assertions. Your will have two choices for your thesis statement: As is evident in the film The Color Purple (or The Great Gatsby ), Franklin’s assertion that the American Dream is available to all people is incorrect because _________, ___________, and _________ (you will determine three points in support of your thesis, and those will become the topics of your three body paragraphs). As is evident in the film The Color Purple (or The Great Gatsby ), Franklin’s assertion that the American Dream is available to all people is correct because _________, ___________, and _________ (you will determine three points in support of your thesis, and those will become the topics of your three body paragraphs). .

Option 1 ImperialismThe exploitation of colonial resources.docx
Option 1: Imperialism
The exploitation of colonial resources and indigenous labor was one of the key elements in the success of imperialism. Such exploitation was a result of the prevalent ethnocentrism of the time and was justified by the unscientific concept of social Darwinism, which praised the characteristics of white Europeans and inaccurately ascribed negative characteristics to indigenous peoples. A famous poem of the time by Rudyard Kipling, "White Man's Burden," called on imperial powers, and particularly the U.S., at whom the poem was directed, to take up the mission of civilizing these "savage" peoples.
Read the poem at the following link:
Link (website):
White Man's Burden (Links to an external site.)
(Rudyard Kipling)
After reading the poem, address the following in a case study analysis:
Select a specific part of the world (a country), and examine imperialism in that country. What was the relationship between the invading country and the native people? You can select from these examples or choose your own:
Belgium & Africa
Britain & India
Germany & Africa
France & Africa
Apply social Darwinism to this specific case.
Analyze the motivations of the invading country?
How did ethnocentrism manifest in their interactions?
How does Kipling's poem apply to your specific example? You can quote lines for comparison.

Revisiting the Stanford Prison Experiment: a Lesson in the Power of Situation
~~~~~~~~
BY THE 1970s, psychologists had done a series of studies establishing the social power of groups. They showed, for example, that groups of strangers could persuade people to believe statements that were obviously false. Psychologists had also found that research participants were often willing to obey authority figures even when doing so violated their personal beliefs. The Yale studies by Stanley Milgram in 1963 demonstrated that a majority of ordinary citizens would continually shock an innocent man, even up to near-lethal levels, if commanded to do so by someone acting as an authority. The "authority" figure in this case was merely a high-school biology teacher who wore a lab coat and acted in an official manner. The majority of people shocked their victims over and over again despite increasingly desperate pleas to stop.
In my own work, I wanted to explore the fictional notion from William Golding's Lord of the Flies about the power of anonymity to unleash violent behavior. In one experiment from 1969, female students who were made to feel anonymous and given permission for aggression became significantly more hostile than students with their identities intact. Those and a host of other social-psychological studies were showing that human nature was more pliable than previously imagined and more responsive to situational pressures than we cared to acknowledge. In sum, these studies challenged the sacrosanct view that inner determinants of behavior--personality traits, morality, and religious upbringing--directed good people down righteous paths.
Missing from the body of social-science research at the time was the direct confrontation of good versus evil, of good people pitted against the forces inherent in bad situations. It was evident from everyday life that smart people made dumb decisions when they were engaged in mindless groupthink, as in the disastrous Bay of Pigs invasion by the smart guys in President John F. Kennedy's cabinet. It was also clear that smart people surrounding President Richard M. Nixon, like Henry A. Kissinger and Robert S. McNamara, escalated the Vietnam War when they knew, and later admitted, it was not winnable. They were .

Acceptable use policy (AUP) – A policy that communicates to users what specific uses of computer resources are permitted.
Account disablement - the step between the account having access and the account being removed from the system.
Account lockout - Akin to disablement, although lockout typically refers to the ability to log on. If a user mistypes their password a certain number of times, they may be forced to wait a set amount of time while their account is locked before attempting to log in again.
Business partnership agreement (BPA) – A written agreement defining the terms and conditions of a business partnership.
Due care – The degree of care that a reasonable person would exercise under similar circumstances.
Due diligence – The reasonable steps a person or entity would take in order to satisfy legal or contractual requirements—commonly used when buying or selling something of significant value.
Guidelines – Recommendations relating to a policy.
Incident response policy – Policies and procedures that outline how the organization will prepare for security incidents and respond to them when they occur.
Interconnection security agreement (ISA) – An agreement between parties to establish procedures for mutual cooperation and coordination between them with respect to security requirements associated with their joint project.
Memorandum of understanding (MOU) – A document executed between two parties that defines some form of agreement.
Nondisclosure agreement (NDA) - standard corporate document used to explain the boundaries of company secret material

Additional Praise for
Implementing Enterprise Risk Management
“Educators the world over seeking to make the management of risk an integral part
of management degrees have had great difficulties in providing their students with
a definitive ERM text for their course. The Standards and associated Handbooks
helped, but until the arrival of Implementing Enterprise Risk Management: Case Stud-
ies and Best Practices, there has been no text to enlighten students on the application
of an effective program to manage risk across an enterprise so that objectives are
maximized and threats minimized. Fraser, Simkins, and Narvaez have combined
with a group of contributors that represent the cream of risk practitioners, to pro-
vide the reader with a clear and concise journey through the management of risk
within a wide range of organizations and industries. The knowledge, skills, and
experience in the management of risk contained within the covers of this book are
second to none. It will provide a much needed resource to students and practition-
ers for many years to come and should become a well-used reference on the desk
of every manager of risk.”
—Kevin W. Knight AM, chairman, ISO/TC 262—Risk Management
“The authors—Fraser, Simkins, and Narvaez—have done an invaluable service to
advance the science of enterprise risk management by collecting an extensive num-
ber of wonderful case studies that describe innovative risk management practices
in a dive.

Abstract
This module explores di�erent models of CSR (corporate social responsibility) including a shareholder
model (based on the arguments of Milton Friedman), the stakeholder model (based on the work of Evan
and Freeman), and an alliance model advocated by Patricia Werhane. Students will develop a framework
based on an exercise to determine a social contract between society and business. They will use this social
contract to assess each CSR approaches. Then they will develop a CSR program for the hypothetical
corporation, Burger Man. (Based on an exercise developed by Paul Thompson.) This module is being
developed as a part of a project funded by the National Science Foundation, "Collaborative Development
of Ethics Across the Curriculum Resources and Sharing of Best Practices," NSF-SES-0551779. It is
currently being used in the courses "Business, Society and Government" and "Corporate Leadership and
Social Responsibility" being taught at the University of Puerto Rico at Mayaguez

1 Introduction
This module will introduce you to the theme of corporate social responsibility. Three representative cases
will help to pose the central problems and basic issues of CSR. Then you will work on developing a social
contract between the business corporation and society to articulate the interests, goods, and rights at stake in
CSR. Three di�erent approaches dominate this �eld: the shareholder approach set forth by Milton Friedman,
the stakeholder approach articulated .

Only number 4) it doesn’t need to limit to revenue recognition. I did the issue about identifying the contract about how to deal with the cancel flight. Now the only thing that is needed to do how to estimate the value. Such as historical cost assumption. United airlines has fixed cost, the plane’s facilities and land. How to record their value.those are interesting things.

ONPS2507 - Science Fiction Science Fact Assignment Informa.docx
ONPS2507 - Science Fiction Science Fact
Assignment Information 2020
(1) Description
You are required to write an essay on a technology (e.g. hand-held communicators, faster
than light travel, time-travel, etc.) which was introduced as a concept in science fiction,
focusing on its plausibility and appearance in popular media. This technology may or may not
have already been developed. A list of additional suggested topics will be provided in the
Major Essay Discussion Forum.
You must have the following section headings in your essay:
1. Title Page– Descriptive and creative title of the topic (including name, course, etc.)
2. Introduction and History – Describe the technology in terms of what it does and its
potential benefits and/or problems. Include historical references to the first and early
appearance of the technology in science fiction literature/media, as well as from recent
literature/media. Two detailed examples (1 classic, 1 modern) should be given; the
remaining (at least 4 for full marks) need only be mentioned but must be cited correctly.
3. Current Status/Recent Developments – If the technology has been developed then explain
the following: when it was developed, by whom and its current status. If it has not yet
been developed: outline theoretical and/or experimental work currently underway to make
the technology a reality.
4. Technological Limitations and Future Potential – If already developed: what does the
future of the technology hold? If not already developed: describe what technologies must
be developed and/or scientific discoveries made in order to make the technology a reality.
Include predictions on the likelihood of the technology coming to fruition and realistic
potential timelines or if too far in the future, compile a detailed timeline from sci-fi
sources, listing at least 3 specific examples when the technology was developed or was
already available in different sci-fi offerings.
5. References – including in-text citations and a full reference list.
(2) Readability
Proper formatting specific to an essay is required. Your essay should be
uncumbersome to read and engaging to the reader. Consider your audience (me,
someone with a PhD); the basic physics and ideas are assumed knowledge, hence need
only be mentioned and not elaborated on, i.e. do not detail what was covered in class,
focus on the research you have conducted. Aspects of science fiction should be tied
into the body of the essay, i.e. specific examples for media/literature. An appropriate
level of orthography and grammar characteristic of a university student is expected.
(3) Length
Essays must be between 1200 to 1500 words in length not including references.
(4) Assessment
All essays will be marked according to the attach Rubric. This assignment will be
worth 44% of your mark for this course.
(5) Due date
All assignments must be submitted by uploading them as PDFs to Canvas via tu.

Virtual Teams and Protecting Information Assets- Case 4
The Case Assignment for this module involves your analysis of what is known, somewhat known, not known, or "known" but wrong in the area of the management of virtual teams. Since this phenomenon is relatively new, there isn't a large body of knowledge specifically about such teams. Most of the advice floating around about virtual teams comes from one or more of four types of sources:
· The small number of academically respectable research studies on virtual teams
· The very large body of research done on the management of teams generally (dating back to the 1930s and of somewhat questionable generalizability due to differences in tools, culture, society, and just about everything else)
· The modest but steadily increasing body of informal or "practice wisdom" information, generally made available through blogs or other Internet sources
· The quite large body of essentially uninformed but ready-to-be-shared opinion about the topic, also Internet-available
The first two bodies of information are generally easy to identify and distinguish; they'll be found in academic journals, conference transactions, and other such sourc.
onsider this hypothetical situationDavid Doe is a network admin.docx
onsider this hypothetical situation:
David Doe is a network administrator for the ABC Company. David is passed over for promotion three times. He is quite vocal in his dissatisfaction with this situation. In fact, he begins to express negative opinions about the organization in general. Eventually, David quits and begins his own consulting business. Six months after David’s departure, it is discovered that a good deal of the ABC Company’s research has suddenly been duplicated by a competitor. Executives at ABC suspect that David Doe has done some consulting work for this competitor and may have passed on sensitive data. However, in the interim since David left, his computer has been formatted and reassigned to another person. ABC has no evidence that David Doe did anything wrong.
What steps might have been taken to detect David’s alleged industrial espionage?
What steps might have been taken to prevent his perpetrating such an offense?

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Revisiting the Stanford Prison Experiment: a Lesson in the Power of Situation
~~~~~~~~
BY THE 1970s, psychologists had done a series of studies establishing the social power of groups. They showed, for example, that groups of strangers could persuade people to believe statements that were obviously false. Psychologists had also found that research participants were often willing to obey authority figures even when doing so violated their personal beliefs. The Yale studies by Stanley Milgram in 1963 demonstrated that a majority of ordinary citizens would continually shock an innocent man, even up to near-lethal levels, if commanded to do so by someone acting as an authority. The "authority" figure in this case was merely a high-school biology teacher who wore a lab coat and acted in an official manner. The majority of people shocked their victims over and over again despite increasingly desperate pleas to stop.
In my own work, I wanted to explore the fictional notion from William Golding's Lord of the Flies about the power of anonymity to unleash violent behavior. In one experiment from 1969, female students who were made to feel anonymous and given permission for aggression became significantly more hostile than students with their identities intact. Those and a host of other social-psychological studies were showing that human nature was more pliable than previously imagined and more responsive to situational pressures than we cared to acknowledge. In sum, these studies challenged the sacrosanct view that inner determinants of behavior--personality traits, morality, and religious upbringing--directed good people down righteous paths.
Missing from the body of social-science research at the time was the direct confrontation of good versus evil, of good people pitted against the forces inherent in bad situations. It was evident from everyday life that smart people made dumb decisions when they were engaged in mindless groupthink, as in the disastrous Bay of Pigs invasion by the smart guys in President John F. Kennedy's cabinet. It was also clear that smart people surrounding President Richard M. Nixon, like Henry A. Kissinger and Robert S. McNamara, escalated the Vietnam War when they knew, and later admitted, it was not winnable. They were .

Acceptable use policy (AUP) – A policy that communicates to users what specific uses of computer resources are permitted.
Account disablement - the step between the account having access and the account being removed from the system.
Account lockout - Akin to disablement, although lockout typically refers to the ability to log on. If a user mistypes their password a certain number of times, they may be forced to wait a set amount of time while their account is locked before attempting to log in again.
Business partnership agreement (BPA) – A written agreement defining the terms and conditions of a business partnership.
Due care – The degree of care that a reasonable person would exercise under similar circumstances.
Due diligence – The reasonable steps a person or entity would take in order to satisfy legal or contractual requirements—commonly used when buying or selling something of significant value.
Guidelines – Recommendations relating to a policy.
Incident response policy – Policies and procedures that outline how the organization will prepare for security incidents and respond to them when they occur.
Interconnection security agreement (ISA) – An agreement between parties to establish procedures for mutual cooperation and coordination between them with respect to security requirements associated with their joint project.
Memorandum of understanding (MOU) – A document executed between two parties that defines some form of agreement.

Additional Praise for
Implementing Enterprise Risk Management
“Educators the world over seeking to make the management of risk an integral part
of management degrees have had great difficulties in providing their students with
a definitive ERM text for their course. The Standards and associated Handbooks
helped, but until the arrival of Implementing Enterprise Risk Management: Case Stud-
ies and Best Practices, there has been no text to enlighten students on the application
of an effective program to manage risk across an enterprise so that objectives are
maximized and threats minimized. Fraser, Simkins, and Narvaez have combined
with a group of contributors that represent the cream of risk practitioners, to pro-
vide the reader with a clear and concise journey through the management of risk
within a wide range of organizations and industries. The knowledge, skills, and
experience in the management of risk contained within the covers of this book are
second to none. It will provide a much needed resource to students and practition-
ers for many years to come and should become a well-used reference on the desk
of every manager of risk.”
—Kevin W. Knight AM, chairman, ISO/TC 262—Risk Management
“The authors—Fraser, Simkins, and Narvaez—have done an invaluable service to
advance the science of enterprise risk management by collecting an extensive num-
ber of wonderful case studies that describe innovative risk management practices
in a dive.

Abstract
This module explores di�erent models of CSR (corporate social responsibility) including a shareholder
model (based on the arguments of Milton Friedman), the stakeholder model (based on the work of Evan
and Freeman), and an alliance model advocated by Patricia Werhane. Students will develop a framework
based on an exercise to determine a social contract between society and business. They will use this social
contract to assess each CSR approaches. Then they will develop a CSR program for the hypothetical
corporation, Burger Man. (Based on an exercise developed by Paul Thompson.) This module is being
developed as a part of a project funded by the National Science Foundation, "Collaborative Development
of Ethics Across the Curriculum Resources and Sharing of Best Practices," NSF-SES-0551779. It is
currently being used in the courses "Business, Society and Government" and "Corporate Leadership and
Social Responsibility" being taught at the University of Puerto Rico at Mayaguez

1 Introduction
This module will introduce you to the theme of corporate social responsibility. Three representative cases
will help to pose the central problems and basic issues of CSR. Then you will work on developing a social
contract between the business corporation and society to articulate the interests, goods, and rights at stake in
CSR. Three di�erent approaches dominate this �eld: the shareholder approach set forth by Milton Friedman,
the stakeholder approach articulated .

Now the only thing that is needed to do how to estimate the value. Such as historical cost assumption. United airlines has fixed cost, the plane’s facilities and land. How to record their value.those are interesting things.

ONPS2507 - Science Fiction Science Fact Assignment Informa.docx
ONPS2507 - Science Fiction Science Fact
Assignment Information 2020
(1) Description
You are required to write an essay on a technology (e.g. hand-held communicators, faster
than light travel, time-travel, etc.) which was introduced as a concept in science fiction,
focusing on its plausibility and appearance in popular media. This technology may or may not
have already been developed. A list of additional suggested topics will be provided in the
Major Essay Discussion Forum.
You must have the following section headings in your essay:
1. Title Page– Descriptive and creative title of the topic (including name, course, etc.)
2. Introduction and History – Describe the technology in terms of what it does and its
potential benefits and/or problems. Include historical references to the first and early
appearance of the technology in science fiction literature/media, as well as from recent
literature/media. Two detailed examples (1 classic, 1 modern) should be given; the
remaining (at least 4 for full marks) need only be mentioned but must be cited correctly.
3. Current Status/Recent Developments – If the technology has been developed then explain
the following: when it was developed, by whom and its current status. If it has not yet
been developed: outline theoretical and/or experimental work currently underway to make
the technology a reality.
4. Technological Limitations and Future Potential – If already developed: what does the
future of the technology hold? If not already developed: describe what technologies must
be developed and/or scientific discoveries made in order to make the technology a reality.
Include predictions on the likelihood of the technology coming to fruition and realistic
potential timelines or if too far in the future, compile a detailed timeline from sci-fi
sources, listing at least 3 specific examples when the technology was developed or was
already available in different sci-fi offerings.
5. References – including in-text citations and a full reference list.

someone with a PhD); the basic physics and ideas are assumed knowledge, hence need
only be mentioned and not elaborated on, i.e. do not detail what was covered in class,
focus on the research you have conducted. Aspects of science fiction should be tied
into the body of the essay, i.e. specific examples for media/literature. An appropriate
level of orthography and grammar characteristic of a university student is expected.
(3) Length
Essays must be between 1200 to 1500 words in length not including references.
(4) Assessment
All essays will be marked according to the attach Rubric. This assignment will be
worth 44% of your mark for this course.

Virtual Teams and Protecting Information Assets- Case 4
The Case Assignment for this module involves your analysis of what is known, somewhat known, not known, or "known" but wrong in the area of the management of virtual teams. Since this phenomenon is relatively new, there isn't a large body of knowledge specifically about such teams. Most of the advice floating around about virtual teams comes from one or more of four types of sources:
· The small number of academically respectable research studies on virtual teams
· The very large body of research done on the management of teams generally (dating back to the 1930s and of somewhat questionable generalizability due to differences in tools, culture, society, and just about everything else)
· The modest but steadily increasing body of informal or "practice wisdom" information, generally made available through blogs or other Internet sources
· The quite large body of essentially uninformed but ready-to-be-shared opinion about the topic, also Internet-available
The first two bodies of information are generally easy to identify and distinguish; they'll be found in academic journals, conference transactions, and other such sourc.
onsider this hypothetical situationDavid Doe is a network admin.docx
onsider this hypothetical situation:
David Doe is a network administrator for the ABC Company. David is passed over for promotion three times. He is quite vocal in his dissatisfaction with this situation. In fact, he begins to express negative opinions about the organization in general. Eventually, David quits and begins his own consulting business. Six months after David’s departure, it is discovered that a good deal of the ABC Company’s research has suddenly been duplicated by a competitor. Executives at ABC suspect that David Doe has done some consulting work for this competitor and may have passed on sensitive data. However, in the interim since David left, his computer has been formatted and reassigned to another person. ABC has no evidence that David Doe did anything wrong.
What steps might have been taken to detect David’s alleged industrial espionage?
What steps might have been taken to prevent his perpetrating such an offense?

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Option 1The American Dream lecture in Week 1 points out tha.docx
- 1. Option 1: The American Dream lecture in Week 1 points out that Poor Richard’s Almanac was an annual publication that included calendar lists, home recipes, weather forecasts etc. What made Franklin’s almanac unlike other almanacs was the inclusion of Franklin’s witty parables and humorous writings. Franklin proposes in “The Way to Wealth” that anyone who works hard, avoids debt, and works toward attaining a virtuous character can be successful and ultimately wealthy—that the American Dream is accessible to all. Watch either The Color Purple or The Great Gatsby (locate the films using Netflix, Amazon, or your local library) and argue why or why not Franklin’s assertions are correct. Provide examples from the film and your own explanations to support your assertions. Your will have two choices for your thesis statement: As is evident in the film The Color Purple (or The Great Gatsby ), Franklin’s assertion that the American Dream is available to all people is incorrect because _________, ___________, and _________ (you will determine three points in support of your thesis, and those will become the topics of your three body paragraphs).
