Discussion Week 1
Each
of you has probably been affected, either directly or indirectly through your
friendship with others, by student loan debt.  As you know, student loan
debt can accumulate very quickly and is often ignored until after the degrees
for which the loans creating the debt are taken are completed.
But,
then reality hits. Sometimes, student loan debt becomes almost insurmountable
as graduates have difficulty paying living expenses and their indebtedness
while earning only entry level salaries. Faced with what may seem like a futile
effort to repay their student loans, many attempt to discharge student loan
debt by filing for bankruptcy protection.
However,
the federal bankruptcy statute itself, and the case law applicable to
discharging student loan debt, has made it very difficult to discharge it by
filing for bankruptcy.  
11 U.S.C. 523.pdf, specifically addresses student loan debt and provides
for a discharge only if the petitioner can show that not being allowed to
discharge the debt in bankruptcy would cause “undue hardship on the debtor
and the debtor’s dependents.”
Procedurally,
one attempts to show “undue hardship” under Subsection 8 of Section
523  by filing a proceeding in a federal bankruptcy court. Decisions of
the bankruptcy court may be appealed to a Federal District Court, and Federal
District Court decisions may be appealed to a Federal Circuit Court. From
there, one may petition the US Supreme Court to hear an appeal from a decision
of a Federal Circuit Court in a bankruptcy case. To date, however, the
Supreme Court has refused to render a decision on what constitutes “undue
hardship” under Section 523 of the Bankruptcy Code.  
Most
US Circuits (recall from Chapter Two that there are 13 Federal Circuit Courts
that span the USA–we in New York are located in the Second Circuit) follow
what is known as the “Brunner Test” in deciding whether someone
has met Section 523(8)’s test of “undue hardship.” However, a
minority of federal circuit courts follow the “Long Test” established
by the Eighth Circuit in Long v. Educational Credit Management Corp.,
322 F2d 549 (8th Cir. 2003).
After
reviewing the text of Section 523(8) linked to above, review the text of
the Brunner decision that was decided by the Second Circuit
Court of Appeals.  A link to the case appears here: Brunner v. NY Higher Educ. Servs Corp. 831 F.2d 395.pdf.
The Second Circuit’s decision is brief.  
Also
review the student article Student Loans can be Discharged (at Least Partially) in
Bankruptcy After All | ABI.pdf.
The article describes a different and more flexible
test for establishing “undue hardship.” That test was established in
the Long case referred to above (a link to the case appears at
the end of this post).  
Brunner has been criticized as being too inflexible. In fact,
as you will see from reading the linked article ABI Journal Article.Student Loan Discharge Decisions Poke
Holes in the Brunner Test.. By J. Jackson Waste and Michael J. Fletcher.pdf, the
courts seem to be moving away from the Brunner test. 
After
reviewing each of linked materials, explain which test you think should be
applied in the case of someone seeking to discharge student loan debt by filing
for bankruptcy relief.  Defend your position by explaining the reasons why
you believe the interests of justice will be better served by the test you have
chosen. Point out the flaws in the test NOT chosen.
Secondly,
apart from the student loan example, explain WHY you agree or disagree that
debtors should be allowed to discharge their debts in a bankruptcy proceeding.
Is the bankruptcy mechanism for discharging debt fair to creditors?

Case Study: Frederick is a student at Central Fictional State University (CFSU), and he has a great idea for a new business invention. Frederick’s invention and the business that he plans to found based on it will absolutely revolutionize the market and will make him very rich. He decides to share his idea with a few trusted professors, and he even uses the idea in a research project for one of his classes.
While Frederick is at home over summer break, he discovers, much to his dismay, that his professors have stolen his idea and have opened a business marketing his new invention. Frederick immediately seeks the advice of the local lawyer who has a reputation for being a “scorched-earth” litigator. He advises Frederick that he should sue “those professors for everything they’ve got.” Frederick, however, is not sure if he should file an aggressive lawsuit, or if there is a better way to proceed. 
Frederick knows that your business recently completed mediation to settle a lawsuit filed by one of your suppliers. He comes to you for advice on how to proceed. What is your answer to Frederick? In your response, consider whether the decision to file suit or to proceed through some form of alternative dispute resolution is affected by the previous relationship with the professors (can/should you sue a friend, how will the decision impact an ongoing relationship, etc.). Also, what role could Frederick’s faith play in his decision? 
Title your thread “Lawsuit” or “ADR” to reflect your conclusion. 
Suggested Readings:
Szto, M. C. (2001). Lawyers as hired doves: Lessons from the Sermon on the Mount. Cumberland Law Review, 31, 27-46.
Proverbs 17:14, 20:3, 25:8–10; Matthew 5:25–26, 38–42; Matthew 18:15-17; 1 Corinthians 6:1–8 (For these passages, you should consult some trusted exegetical commentaries, many of which may be found on www.ccel.org.)
Each thread and each reply must reference at least 2 scholarly sources other than the course extbook, cited in current APA format (including both in-text citations and a reference list). You
must also support each thread and reply with thoughtful analysis (considering assumptions,
analyzing implications, and comparing/contrasting concepts) and Biblical worldview integration.
Well-developed, complete worldview analysis of the situation requires more than simply adding
a Bible verse at the end of the post. Each thread and each reply must include at least 1 verse from
Scripture, quoted and applied as an integral part of the discussion of the applicable issues in the
context of a Biblical worldview

Module 3 – SLP
DEVELOPING AND REWARDING EMPLOYEES
Overview
This Module 3 SLP assignment rounds out the discussion of employee development and rewards to enhance workplace performance.
Assignment
Developing and Rewarding Employees
What are some strategies to improve employee engagement, productivity, and performance levels?
In this assignment, we consider practical ways to increase employee engagement, increase productivity, and improve overall employee performance.
SLP Assignment
You have been asked to give a 10-minute presentation to a group of college seniors who majored or minored in human resource management. The topic is on effective performance improvement strategies using recognition and rewards. As with any visual presentation, do not put too much information on your slides as you do not want your audience to read the slides while you are giving the presentation.
In addition to the background readings, find at least one additional high-quality academic source from the Trident Online Library to support your presentation. With your 6-8 slides (not counting the cover slide or the References slide), include speaker notes in the comments section under each slide. [Adding an audio (voice) component to each slide is required for this assignment.]
Submit your presentation to the SLP 3 drop box by the Module 3 due date.
Note: If you have difficulty submitting your presentation, it could be that your internet connection has timed out.
These files can be uploaded to YouTube and the link shared. Set as public or unlisted, NOT PRIVATE. Unlisted means your video/slide presentation will not come up in search results. Only those who know the link can view it, even if they do not have a YouTube account/username.
Important: Put the link to your slide presentation in a Word document and submit your Word document as the assignment in the drop box. Your professor then can click the link to view your slide presentation.
Alternatively, create a PowerPoint presentation with audio recordings inserted and upload it into the Dropbox and it can be viewed in the PowerPoint application.

Apply Classic Systems Theory to an activity in your life.
For example, attending classes and gaining an education aligns with Classic Systems Theory. Another example could be your work experiences or one’s family structure.
All elements outside of the system potentially affect the system. The inputs are the resources taken or received; the transformation of resources results in the output.
Conclude this application of classic systems theory with your assessment regarding whether your example fits as a closed system or an open system. Please include explanations for this assessment.

Question,
1.Describe well about Organization culture
2.Discuss functions of culture for an Organization 
3,How employee learn organization culture?

Below are the instructions for this project. This is a group project. My portion of the project is to research and give a comprehensive overview of Netflix and their selection and hiring practices. Other people in my group will be coving the motivation and the organizational culture. I need 3 PowerPoint slides containing this information and a 1 page single-spaced supplementary report with citations.
In your presentation, you must include in-depth information about your chosen organization across 3
dimensions (selection, motivation and organizational culture), and connect this information to the theories
discussed in class. Remember that low quality research will make a huge dent on your grade so take your time
to choose wisely and really get to know this organization. One might, for example, look at Apple’s (1) selection
and hiring practices, (2) consider how they motivate their employees, and (3) what elements drive their
organizational culture. You must consider how each of these elements influences the other and come up with
recommendations for how the organization might improve performance by changing or tweaking how they
select, hire or socialize employees. To collect this data you can use interviews with employees/managers, data
from websites, traditional publications, etc. The deliverables for this project are (1) an in-class presentation of
the project, and (2) an email sent to a decision-maker at the organization you examine (and cc’d to me) in
which you detail the findings of your investigation. Additional instructions and a grading rubric for this project
will be given to you in class.
The written supplementary report should be written for the audience to be your primary decision-maker contact at the organization (you will not send to this person). The purpose of this report is to provide a summary of the information presented in you written supplementary report should be written for the audience to be your primary decision-makehe report to this person)

notes from secondary data collection efforts are appropriate to include in your supplemental report. The written
report should be at maximum 3 pages (excluding any cover page, works cited page, or appendices); it should
be single-spaced, with double spacing between paragraphs, using a 12-point serif-style font (like Times New
Roman). A minimally acceptable written supplementary report will include the following: (a) summarize the
findings of your research; (b) outline interview protocols (interview questions asked) and, when applicable,
detail survey or other primary data collection questions in addition to interviews; and (c) include a complete list
of references/citations and active links to articles referenced for your project; references should include
complete contact information or where the audience can find and access all resources that informed your work.
