In an attempt to be competitive, university athletic programs are comfortable enough to court and recruit racial minorities into their once segregated programs. However, they often fail to extend these same opportunities to qualified minority coaching individuals. In comparison, a few of professional leagues have done well in making such opportunities available to racial minority groups. a) Using information from Cunningham and Eitzen, outline six arguments that can be advanced that account for the disparity regarding opportunities for minority coaches. b) Which of the six explanations that you have outlined would likely be the most helpful for a SEC college athletic director to realize and consider when recruiting African-American coaches to coach for of his or her programs? (10 points; 250 word minimum) 2. Eitzen cites two primary ways in which school symbols can be racist: 1) symbols of the Confederacy, and 2) the use of Native American names and ceremonial acts. a) Regarding the use of symbols of the Confederacy, outline TWO opposing positions on the use of such symbols at Ole Miss. That is, using arguments from the Eitzen chapter (regardless of whether you agree with each position or not), outline a) ONE rationale arguing that the use of these symbols is important and useful, and b) ONE rationale arguing that the use of the symbols is harmful and racist. (80 word minimum) b) Regarding the use of Native American nicknames and ceremonial acts, outline a total of FOUR opposing positions on the use of such symbols at thousands of our high schools and numerous colleges. That is, using arguments from the Eitzen chapter and the Understanding the Harm documentary you viewed (regardless of whether you agree with each position or not), outline a) TWO rationales arguing that the use of these symbols are important and useful, and b) TWO rationales arguing that the use of the symbols is harmful and racist. (170 word minimum) (10 points; 250 word minimum) 3. Both Cunningham and Spaaj et al. suggest that racial minority athletes, regardless of their success on the field or court, are often the victims of racial vilification by society. The three stories that were assigned to view demonstrate the magnitude of the problem. For this response, craft a 250-word essay that could serve as a short news story appearing in a public outlet (e.g., USA Today) that describes the magnitude of the problem. In your essay, be s.

Television continues to remain a viable source of entertainment, both on traditional cable channels and online streaming services. However, an issue that is continuously addressed is diversity. While more diverse shows are appearing in part as a result of more platforms and channels than ever before, we continue to see some shows fumble and cause controversy. Diversity is not limited to race; it can also look at representation and portrayals of sexuality, social class, ableism/disabilities, age, etc. Part One: For part one, read this article: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/how-childrens-shows-lead-the-way-in-diversity-on-tv Answer the following questions about one of the articles: Question 1: Summarize the article and discuss some key takeaways. (3-5 sentences) Question 2: What is the article suggesting about diversity? (3-5 sentences) Question 3: Do you think the article does a good job addressing diversity? Why or why not? (3-5 sentences) Part Two For part two, consider your own personal experiences with diversity on television: Question 4: When was the first time you saw a character in a show or film you felt was similar to you? If you feel like you haven't seen one yet, what is the closest example? (3-5 sentences) Question 5: In your opinion , what 'checkboxes' does a television show need for you to consider it diverse? In other words, what do you personally consider when you say a show is diverse? (3-5 sentences) Question 6: Do you think Hollywood is doing enough to address diversity? Why or why not?

In social psychology, one of the main ways of studying how people interact with each other and their group behavior is through observation. One aspect of observation is through understanding the media. We live in a world of mass media, with blockbuster movies, dramas, situation comedies, and twenty-four-hour news channels. Add to this product placements and commercials. It could be said that what we watch or read is a reflection of who we are as a culture, but is that true? Movies like GoneWith the Wind (1939), although spectacular cinematic experiences, were steeped in racial stereotypes. However, that was long ago. The world has changed considerably since then. Right? You expect racial, ethnic, and gender stereotypes in the media to be a thing of the past. Consider movies like Scarface (1983), The Birdcage (1996), and The Waterboy (1998) and the popular drama series The Sopranos (1999–2007)—all had main characters portraying a particular group in a stereotypical manner. The fact is that stereotypes still do exist. The purpose of this assignment is to examine stereotypes on television to see if it promotes prejudice and discrimination. Pick a television program of your choice; it should be something current (from the last ten years) and can be a drama or a situation comedy. Using what you have learned from your readings, analyze the program and answer the following questions in your essay: What is the overall storyline and setting of the television program? Who are the main characters? Does the program portray the main or supporting characters in a stereotypical manner in terms of race, ethnicity, or gender? If yes, describe the stereotypes and explain how the stereotypes might promote prejudice and discrimination. If the program does not seem to promote stereotypes, explain how it was able to avoid doing so. Discuss the impact of stereotypes depicted in the media on individuals and society, using at least two contemporary examples. Submit your essay in a Microsoft Word document. Cite your sources using the APA format . .

Additionally, workers tend to desert their jobs as a consequence of lack of faith owing to instability experienced by the mangers leaving their positions.

please discuss your reactions to the concept of relationship rewards. Do you think this concept has merit? Why or why not? ******READ this section to understand how to answer the question********* From this perspective, social life entails the mutual exchange of desirable rewards with others, a process called social exchange. There are several different social exchange theories, but the ideas introduced by John Thibaut and Harold Kelley (1959; Kelley & Thibaut, 1978)—now known as interdependence Page 176 theory —are most often used by relationship scientists, so I'll feature them here. Let's first consider the central elements of social exchange. Rewards and Costs The rewards of interactions are the gratifying experiences and commodities we obtain through our contact with others. They come in very different forms ranging from impersonal benefits, such as the directions you can get from strangers when you're lost, to personal intimacies, such as acceptance and support from someone you love. I'll use the term reward to refer to anything within an interaction that is desirable and welcome and that brings enjoyment or fulfillment to the recipient. In contrast, costs are punishing, undesirable experiences. They can involve financial expenditures, such as buying dinner for your date, or actual injuries, such as split lips. However, some of the most important costs of intimate interaction are psychological burdens: uncertainty about where a relationship is headed, frustration over your partner's imperfections, and regret about all the things you don't get to do because you're in that relationship (Sedikides et al., 1994). All of the diverse consequences of interaction that are frustrating or distressing are costs. We'll summarize the rewards and costs associated with a particular interaction with the term outcome, which describes the net profit or loss a person encounters, all things considered. Adding up all the rewards and costs involved, Outcomes = Rewards − Costs (MILLER 175-176) MILLER. Intimate Relationships, 6th Edition . McGraw-Hill Learning Solution s, 10/17/2011. VitalBook file. The citation provided is a guideline. Please check each citation for accuracy before use. Gender Differences in the Evaluation of Relationship Rewards The various commodities and rewards people exchange in their relationships have no price tags, and partners sometimes disagree about what an exchange is worth. In a study by Wills et al., (1974), seven married couples kept track of their behavioral exchanges for 2 weeks. The rewards they exchanged either involved tasks and responsibilities (such as taking out the garbage) or emotion and affection (such as saying, “I love you”). When the spouses rated their pleasure with their partners' behavior, wives particularly appreciated their husbands' affectionate behavior, whereas husbands liked their wives' task-oriented help. The sexes apparently attached different values to such actions as doing the dis.

Please complete in APA Format. 3-6 Pages in length Scenario You have been asked to be the project manager for the development of an information technology (IT) project. The system to be developed will allow a large company to coordinate and maintain records of the professional development of its employees. The company has over 30,000 employees who are located in four sites: Florida, Colorado, Illinois, and Texas. The system needs to allow employees to locate and schedule professional development activities that are relevant to their positions. Sophisticated search capabilities are required, and the ability to add scheduled events to the employees’ calendars is desired. The system needs to support social networking to allow employees to determine who is attending conferences and events. This will promote fostering relationships and ensure coverage of conferences that are considered of high importance. Once an activity has been completed, employees will use the system to submit the documentation.

The plan may also include how the scope will be communicated to all stakeholders. Project Scope After you have the project scope management plan developed, define the project scope. .
