2. How can textbooks you are using in this (or any other) class be improved?
3. What strategies can be used effectively when you are confronted with employer discrimination or harassment? (Assume you want to keep the job.)
4. Imagine that you have been hired to develop a way of improving the course registration system at your institution. What three recommendations will be most effective?
