Short Paper

Short paper assignments must follow these formatting guidelines: 1-2 pages, double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, one-inch margins, and discipline-appropriate citations.

Review the CBA provided in the resources section between the Trustees of Columbia University and Local 2110 International Union of Technical, Office, and Professional Workers.

Describe how this is similar to a "contract" between management and labor. Do you believe it is written at the correct level of detail (e.g., is it too vague and therefore needing more specific details, or is it broad enough for logical interpretation)? Provide several specific examples.

Do you believe this document adds value to a workplace, or does it create restrictions? Please explain.

For additional details, please refer to the Short Paper and Case Study Rubric document in the Assignment Guidelines and Rubrics section of the course.
