Each student will be required to find a current news article about a NON-EEO business situation, and analyze it from a human resource management perspective. Students will be required to give an oral presentation to the class and submit a written, executive summary to the professor.

Pertinent questions that should be answered in your analysis include but are not limited to:

Are there any laws that apply to the situation described in the article? What are they, and how do they relate to the situation described?

How does/might this situation affect the practice of HR?

What are the HR implications to the employer? To the employees?

Are there any HR related concepts that should be considered when evaluating the situation described?

Please focus on the key points that pertain to your article. Your job is not to teach HR material, but to relate the material to your selected article. Do not merely summarize the article.
