1)The main point of this article is how employees rights are not practiced at their jobs.
2)The author used to true stories to support the main idea. These stories are about the "interigation" of Justin Kenward at target and James Lynn a employee of walmart.
3)Yes, personally i have been untreated and i have treated others unfairly at my job. A lot of times people will work 3 to 9 or 10 without getting a break. The only reason for this though is due to the fact we are constantly busy and dont stop. If there is a time slot that is fre than people will get breaks but other wise when you clock in you start and when you clock out you leave., nothing between.

WEEK 9
1) Faculty is speaking up, changes to private policies are being changed, and that colleges are afraid to of violating the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act.
2)I agree with the methods being changed. Teachers should be speaking up about their students, some teachers become close with students or just can pick up on certain things. Private policy is another issue because privacy means absolutly nothing when it comes to hurting or taking other peoples lives.
3)Faculty members realized, that the law applies only to educational records, not observations of classroom behavior, or that it contains numerous exceptions.

WEEK 8
1)The topic is about college shootings in the us.
2)The main idea is that we need better security at colleges to prevent shootings and dangers to students and faculty.
3)The author talks about some of the worst shootings that have happened recently. The Virginia tech shooting where 32 people were killed by a student who later killed himself, the Austin University shooting where 16 students were killed, and the Columbine High School shooting. The problem with college campus security today is that no one takes them seriously no matter how strict or tough they are.The wprst part is once something happens at a school everything tightens up and just a few months later they are back to the same defense lines as they were originally.
4)Warning signs of a potential student taking violent acts are Isolation, low self worth, and a person who deosnt take criticism well.
5) personally i think the security measures here are terrible. There are a total of 4 maybe 5 cops patrolling around in a car for the entire day. The only time you ever see them get out of their cars is for food, bathroom or to give out parking tickets. My high school security did a better job than nyit is doing in my eyes. If something were to happen by the time security gets there, they have to wait even longer for the police dept to show up, and one they are there the securitys job is to basically direct traffic. From what i have seen are security is like a public mall's security they do nothing and looked at as nothing.
