In writing or discussion, be careful in considering the basis of your argument. Here, the lower 4 points are, sadly, most commonly used today. Aim to level up as much as you can. Your education pays off.
Monday AM Class - We'll discuss pandemic management as part of the Managing for Stakeholders/Sustainability challenge, change management basics and if possible, you will get time to consider your final projects. It's a points day.

PM - We'll discuss pandemic management as part of the Managing for Stakeholders/Sustainability challenge, Group quiz/prep, discussion of argumentation so that you will enlighten, and not frighten :-) others with your arguments for resource-efficient, sustainable management practice.
Wednesday - Mid-Term, both sections. Just bring a pencil.
Friday, AM, exam de-brief, final projects and/or papers discussion. April 1 is the deadline to slot a time for presentation.

Notes
In California especially, we are getting used to electrical blackouts and brown-outs. Windy days combined with drought create ground fuels that could easily catch fire. Our electrical grid system is aged and decrepit in many areas. We need alternative forms of energy, because energy is how we run our lives.
Will the decision to go nuclear be ours, or corporations'? It's in our best interests to consider this today.

To be considered in the influencing scenario - how educated is your argument, and how fair your approach to those with whom you disagree?
