Coleco Industries, Inc. Teaching Note Synopsis and Objectives Suggested complementary cases dealing with financial distress: “Caledonian News- papers Ltd. (Abridged)” (UVA-F-1013); “Massive Power Design Corporation” (UVA-F-1086) In March 1988, this large toy manufacturer is facing the consequences of bearing too much debt in a volatile competitive environment. The student’s task is to recommend a response to the worsening situation by which the firm can be returned to financial health. At the date of the case, the company is not under judicial protection, although bankruptcy looms as a distinct possibility if negotiations with lenders produce no mutually agreeable solution. The case was developed to stimulate a discussion of the determinants of corporate-debt policy as part of a pair of cases set in the toy industry (the other being “Tonka Corporation,” UVA-F-0774).
I think that these sources were very useful in suggesting to us that there were serious social divisions. This is because the letter from an American girl tells us of the life that the upper class people led and how they would spend a normal day. The notice is telling the labouring class to stop vandalising peoples land and to get back to work. Finally the book published by Benjamin Disraeli is a work of fiction that tells us of how the country is hugely divided between two classes. ‘Sybil: The Two Nations’ is a book that was published by Benjamin Disraeli in 1845.
Civil Rights Act and Equal Pay Act : Redefining Status Roles Eric Jones HRM 5004 Human Resource Management in the 21st Century P.O. Box 8882 Alta Loma, CA 91701 Telephone (909) 200-8996 Email: Jonese00@yahoo.com Instructor : Jack McEnry Abstract This paper begins by taking a look at the problems that were caused by employment discrimination and how the Civil Rights Act of 1964 addressed certain issues. Employment candidates were judged on appearance sometimes more heavily that on actual knowledge or skill sets. Today technology is becoming the great equalizer and "blind recruiting" through the utilization of social recruiting tools force a focus on abilities in this increasingly competitive job market. The new challenge for the HRM professional is keeping the organization operating on a fair and proportionately equitable basis internally.
For the sample from materials sciences, directed at an internal fellowship, the one-page essay has an especially difficult task: The writer must persuade those who already know him (and thus know both his strengths and limitations) that he is worthy of internal funds to help him continue his graduate education. He attempts this by first citing the specific goal of his research group, followed by a brief summary of the literature related to this topic, then ending with a summary of his own research and lab experience. Teach for America Student Sample The student applying for the Teach for America program, which recruits recent college graduates to teach for two years in underprivileged urban and rural public schools, knows that she must convince readers of her suitability to such a demanding commitment, and she has just two short essays with which to do so. She successfully achieves this through examples related to service mission work that she completed in Ecuador before entering college.
Make notes in the margin: what is each part saying, and what is it doing? 3.

Eric Wong’s Asian Week (June 1, 2000) essay, entitled Lessons from my Freshman Year, relates the author’s experience as a college freshman at U.C. Berkeley and the lessons he learns about the limiting effects of stereotypes in developing productive relationships.
The increased acceptance of African Americans into Ivy League schools and the emergence of women in the corporate world and technological fields provide representation in areas that may not have been considered prior to affirmative action. According to Williams (2009), “In the professional world, blacks and Hispanics make up a mere 4 percent to 6 percent of the nation's lawyers, doctors and engineers” (p. A21). As society continues to evolve, and unfounded stereotypes become a thing of the past, the need for affirmative action will diminish in the

According to Zinn, “…their physical characteristics became a convenience for men, who could use, exploit, and cherish someone who was at the same time servant, sex mate, companion, and bearer-teacher-warden of his children,” (Zinn 103). As time continued, however, women began to want more opportunities and more freedoms, as well as new reputations. Famous women in history began to speak out and band together for their cause. Women were taking part in movements for prisoners, for the insane, for black slaves, and for everybody, all in the name of equality. My reaction towards this chapter was almost bipolar.
