Option 1 or two in the requirements

 
You should rely entirely on the course reading materials and lectures. Make sure you establish a clear thesis and defend it with references to appropriate reading. Somewhere in your first paragraph, there should be a sentence that begins: “In this paper, I will argue that . . .” or something similar. Strong papers will also consider counterarguments and defend against them. Structure your paper carefully and address the issues as directly and concisely as you can. Avoid verbosity, lengthy introductions, and irrelevancies.

When and under what conditions is it possible to mobilize people for action? Choose an example of EITHER regime change OR political violence to answer this question. Make an argument about the relative importance of the different factors that you think explain the phenomenon you chose, drawing on the cases and theories discussed in class. No matter what position you take or question you choose, be sure you make references to competing theories and how they apply to the specific country and question.

OR

What are the prospects for democracy in China? Based on what you know about democratization from the readings and lecture, provide an answer to this question. (There is no need to do extra research!) What factors would different theories point to as significant? What other information would you need about China in order to make a more definitive argument? If you were advising Chinese democrats, what (if any) lessons would you draw from existing theories and from the cases (for example Germany and Russia) we covered in class?

• Reflect on the impact of your selected campaign on the development of health policy. Think about how the campaign’s plan contributes to the success of the advocacy campaign.
• Consider the role of advocates and public health organizations in your selected advocacy campaign.

With these thoughts in mind:

Post a brief explanation of your selected advocacy campaign (Nothing related to tobacco use or childhood obesity) including the campaign’s plan. Explain the potential impact of your selected advocacy campaign on the development of health policy.

personal planning

 
Each student must submit a personal financial plan prepared for a person or family of his/her choice.

The paper must encompass all parts of a financial plan. Each part must be addressed on a separate page or pages, both through written description in sentences and paragraphs and recommendations and relevant quantitative matters. Your writing style should be as if you were presenting it to the “client,” not to the professor.

The outline of the paper should be:
Background A brief summary of the client(s) bringing the individual(s) to life for the professor. This is the only section that should be addressed to the professor.

Summary of Your major significant recommendations generally in
recommendations a phrase or sentence for each recommendation.

Balance Sheet Evaluation plus the normal statement you should be familiar with.

Cash Flow Planning Background and recommendations plus statement including current year and next two years projected data.

Tax Planning Background and recommendations plus statement including current year and next two years projections.

Investment Background and recommendations plus overall asset allocation and Morningstar Sheet for one fund.

Risk Management Background and recommendations plus life and disability insurance needs worksheet.

Retirement Background and recommendations plus retirement planning worksheet. Anyone not performing a retirement needs analysis will receive at least one grade lower

Estate Background and recommendations.
Overall SWOT Analysis
Your grade will be based on the substance of your recommendations, your ability to capture the essence of the “clients'” goals and problems in writing, the quality of your supporting tables, and your ability to integrate the supporting tables with your descriptive material. Perhaps the most important factor will be the depth and extent of your analysis and specific recommendations. The paper will be due on the day of the final exam.
