In a MINIMUM 150 words, choose a Governor in one of the 50 states of the United States of America during this COVID19 with the power vested upon them on how they acted upon as we discussed in Chapter ONE TODAY.

I. THE SHADOW OF PRIVILEGE- 25%

II. THE SHADOW OF MISMANAGED INFORMATION-25%

III. THE SHADOW OF INCONSISTENCY -25%

IV. YOU MUST SITE YOUR SOURCE-25%

These are the requirments that were given by the teacher

Has a thesis statement (a topic/focus/question to be asked and answered, optimally

containing: 1. this is the topic; 2. this is the method used (compare, analyze…); 3.

conclusion to be reached; 4. why this is interesting)

4. has several body ¶s, all (ALL!!!) related to the thesis statement.

5. has a conclusion that either sums up the findings or repeats thesis statement with a

variation, but does NOT open “a new can of worms.”

6. backs up all (ALL!!!) claims with textual evidence, correctly cited MLA style,

and discusses each and every quotation.

7. does NOT let critics and other outside sources “write for you”—they are your

support or somebody to go against, but they are NOT your paper.

8. acknowledges and refutes counter argument when appropriate.

9. has a “works cited” or “bibliography” page (NOT the same thing) or entry at the

end of the paper, even though it only uses a textbook.

A paper is in MLA style – library has manual. If you’re an English major, GET THE

BOOK! Good long-term investment that lasts a study-time.

Revision and editing are VERY different things. When you edit, you “fix the small

things” = put on band-aids; you work with spelling, fragments, punctuation, make sure

your quotations are correct, … When you revise, you do major surgery. You add ¶s,

subtract ¶s, change order so that you progress logically, add quotations, add discussion of

same to paper, … Revisions are welcome, editings are somewhat wasteful of my time.

You want your reader to concentrate on your thesis and the way you develop it.

READER COMFORT therefore A MUST! Follow 1-8 above, spell correctly and use

formal language (a kid is a small goat…), good punctuation and grammar. Beware of spell

check (“he has bad table manors,” “ in mid evil times,” “Othello constipated his marriage

in Cyprus,” “the Prince of Whales” are all authentic examples – and THEY ARE

LEGION! Don’t join the growing list!).

The smaller stuff:

1. no contractions (isn’t, won’t). Contractions belong in the maternity ward.

2. “you” is no fun in papers. I have had “whenever you kill your husband” (MOI!?!)

and “when you do a back flip from the top of the cheerleading pyramid”—I ask

you! Picture this w/yours truly!

3. discuss literature in the present tense always.

4. when something is worth quoting, it is worth discussing the value of that quote.

5. do not start off with a variation of “Webster’s dictionary defines “love” as

……………” or “Already the ancient Egyptians were aware that…”(think about

why not!).

6. I usually allow a writing class student two sets of dashes (what’s between here is

really off topic, but I just HAD to do it!) and two sets of parenthesis (what is

between here is so very irrelevant, but, well, had to do it!) per semester. () belongs

around identifications of quotations. You are not in a writing class – try to avoid

this irritant. How can you solve this problem? [HINT! ,/;].

The final paper will be your opportunity to present a plan and objectives for providing logistic support to a fictional disaster situation. Although every situation encountered has its own unique requirements in order to successfully support the operation, there are basic actions taken pre-, intra- and post that should be followed. Incorporate what you have learned in policy, practice and possibly personal experience and develop an operational (tactical) plan- focused on logistics support- to ensure that disaster operations go smoothly. The goal of your paper should not to create the “perfect solution”; more it should be an examination/analysis of the situation at hand, and your role as a disaster logistician to assist the Incident Commander in supporting emergency operations.

The final paper is due no later than Friday of Week 14 so that we have ample time to grade them before grades are due (which is one weekend after the course ends). Choose one of the 3 scenarios listed below and write a ten page paper (plus or minus 10%) that briefly describes the incident.

You may select one of the topics for your paper:

*I chose this topic

• A community of approximately 10,000 has been exposed to an unknown virus. It appears to be spread by contact. At present, only a small portion of the population is affected. Government leaders and health officials are contemplating community containment. Discuss how you, as the logistic chief, would supply and support emergency operations, what agencies would you seek support from, and establish points of distribution.
