All papers must be professional, well-reasoned, well-written, and free from profanity. This paper assignment should reflect the fact that this is a written product for a graduate professional program. All responses should be professional, and if you disagree with a point-of-view presented in the case, keep it professional. Make any case solutions and suggestions constructive. If ideas are not your own, please reference them with the appropriate internet link or written resource link. Although I do not wish to restrict speech, I reserve the right to fail any student who engages in plagiarism and/or does not show proper respect for any international culture and ethnicity and/or is obscene and promotes discriminatory ideas.
Turn-it-in is enabled on all papers.
