Abstract
This paper examines how in a changing health care environment the need for a change in leadership is evident and how in order to meet the demands of this change, health care agencies have moved away from traditional non-practitioner management positions and toward clinically experienced administrators whose role falls heavily on Master?s level nursing professionals. It shows how E.A. Hemman's article "Leadership Profiles of Senior Nurse Executives" puts forward a stratified systems theory describing three hierarchical functional domains: strategic, organizational and production in order to create a suitable nursing/managerial profile. Each of the three levels of management are further analyzed by four general categories decision making, information giving-seeking, influencing people and building relationships. The paper also critiques the article pointing out facts such as implications of financial and economic strain has and will continue to put on the health care executive.
From the Paper
"Critiquing the comments of Hemman only one omission seems evident, and it may be addressed in the research and just not mentioned in the study write up. The omission of great import is that it is acknowledged early on that many of the changes associated with the change in health care delivery are associated with the economic and financial differences in the whole industry as compared to prior delivery system standards. For this reason I believe it may be important to further discuss the implications that financial and economic strain have and will continue to put on the health care executive."

Abstract
This paper discusses six senators as presented in the book "Profiles in Courage" by John F. Kennedy, showing their backgrounds, their political points of view, their acts, and the aftermath in each case. The six senators discussed are John Quincy Adams, Daniel Webster, Thomas Hart Benton, Sam Houston, Edmund G. Ross, and Lucius Lamar, covering the nineteenth century from the early period through and past the Civil War.
From the Paper
"John F. Kennedy offers a series of portraits of U.S. Senators and their courageous political acts in the face of adversity in his book 'Profiles in Courage'. He features Senators because he himself was in the Senate at the time, and he could include other political leaders who also displayed courage in their professional lives. The men he does choose to profile represent a number of different political backgrounds and points of view. John Quincy Adams was a young Senator from Massachusetts, the same position as Kennedy when he wrote his book. At the time, the Senate was just developing as an institution. Adams was a Federalist, the leading political party of the time, a party that emerged from the late colonial period through the efforts of men like Madison and Jay, the writers of The Federalist Papers.

Abstract
Racial profiling is the use of racial generalizations or stereotypes as a basis for stopping, searching, or questioning an individual. The paper examines this process in the post 9-11 American law system and shows why it is a negative thing.
From the Paper
"Most important, relying on race as a factor for suspicion violates the first principle of criminal law: individual responsibility. The state's authority to take its citizens' liberty, and in extreme cases, lives, turns on the premise that all are equal before the law (source). Racial generalizations fail to treat people as individuals. As a result, policies that tolerate racial profiling undermine the legitimacy of criminal law."

From the Paper
"One of the aspects of social work that is extremely challenging is to create a profile of a client in a manner that is readable and conveys the circumstances of the client that has contributed to their status as an at-risk individual. However, while it is easy to create a profile that explores the problems faced by the client, it is difficult to create one in which a rationale for the client's past, present, and future decision-making processes are evident. In order to better understand the client's motivation, it is necessary that these processes be fully explored and integrated into the client's case profile. This current paper is a practice exercise in exploring the motivation of a fictional client, Clarice, and the conditions of her case, and is written in the first person.

Abstract
The paper explores the advantages and disadvantages of racial profiling and how it is different from profiling.
From the Paper
"In recent years, public debate over the question of whether or not law enforcement officials at all levels in the United States use the practice known as racial profiling in stopping and or identifying suspects has become emotionally charged. According to R. Richard Banks, the view that pervasive irrational racial profiling invariably accounts for the widespread investigation of people of color and ethnic minorities reflects a misreading of empirical studies of law enforcement officers' stop-search practices."

Abstract
This paper discusses from a positive and negative standpoint the use of racial profiling by the police. The author feels that lack of training among the police officials and their inability to practice criminal profiling correctly results in the abusive practice of racial profiling. The author presents a research proposal for a study which asks: Why and how many innocent and peaceful citizens were unjustifiably arrested just because they belonged to a specific minority group?
From the Paper
"It is interesting to note that some of the social experts favor the practice of racial profiling, claiming that the racially biased policing efforts are helpful in identifying the criminals, as they work in the form of groups belonging to same ethnic or racial group. They argue that the arrests and searches of individuals from a specific ethnic group or race are due to their own inappropriate behaviors. They totally reject the notion that racial profiling is another form of racial discrimination by the law enforcement officials. According to them, it is one of the most effective tools to identify the criminals and it has proved its effectiveness in the past."

Abstract
This paper presents a detailed examination of racial profiling. The writer addresses four scenarios and argues for or against their legal and moral foundation based on the 14th amendment of the United States Constitution. In addition to the writer?s belief regarding each scenario, we are given key elements of the opposition?s argument and the writer?s rebuttal to that opposition.
From the paper:
"Following the attacks on America September 11, 2001, there were cries for revenge throughout the nation. Anyone who looked Muslim was endangered as Americans took their anger to the streets. Following the attack there were several instances in which pilots refused to fly planes until Muslim looking passengers were removed and angry residents threatened those who looked like one of ?them?. The initial rage died down and in its place we were given many new security measures that we have been told are for the good of national security. The measures boil down to legalized racial profiling in some cases. Racial profiling is not a new event. It has been around for many years. Racial profiling goes against everything the constitution of this nation stands for; yet in light of the attacks in New York, Americans are less vocal about it then they have been in the past. Now, instead of denouncing all profiling as unconstitutional and wrong, we find ourselves looking at individual profile scenarios and holding them against the constitution to see if we can slide them through. We have entered a new world since the attacks. It is a world in which we are trying to walk a much thinner line between protecting the safety of those who live here and protecting the constitution."

From the Paper
"Racial profiling is when someone is treated differently because they belong to a specific race. After the tragic events of September 11th of 2001 U.S., government and airport officials have targeted Arabs and Muslims as suspects of future terrorist action. Racial profiling has been going on for generations. During World War II the Japanese living in the U.S. were placed in military observation zones in California due to their Japanese ancestry after Pearl Harbor was bombed in December of 1941. The legal matter was argued in the Supreme Court in the case, Korematsu v. US. The young Korematsu?s argument was based on the unfair ?imprisonment in a concentration camp solely because of his ancestry, without evidence or inquiry concerning his loyalty and good disposition towards the United States.? The United States case later goes on to claim: Korematsu was not excluded from the Military Area because of hostility to him or his race. He was excluded because we were at war with the Japanese Empire, because the properly constituted military authorities feared an invasion of our West Coast and felt constrained to take proper security measures. ?. Congress, reposing its confidence in this time owar in our military leaders?as inevitably must-- determined that they should have the power to do just this."

Abstract
This paper examines the concept of racial profiling, using race to profile criminals and how African-Americans and other minority groups have been unfairly targeted by law enforcement officials. It looks at how racial profiling taps into one of the irreconcilable conflicts of American society, liberty versus security, although with racial profiling, it has been shown that crime has been significantly reduced in major cities, such as New York City. It shows how ultimately, racial profiling has created a gulf between law enforcement and the minority communities it purports to protect and how all too frequently, innocent people are persecuted. In other situations, people from the minority community refuse to testify on behalf of law enforcement in trials against criminals because of the minority people?s distrust of law enforcement.
From the Paper
"Against incriminating statistics that police unfairly target minorities is the reality that most of the criminals come from minority neighborhoods and communities. One of the statistics cited by the liberals is the 1998 statistic stating that 83 percent of the 27,000 "stop and frisk" incidents by a special police unit concerned minorities. However, according to New York mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani, this statistic does not translate into the fact that policemen are deliberately harassing individuals from minority neighborhoods. Instead, these statistics reflect the reality that many suspects, whose ethnicities are described by their victims, come from minority communities (Getlin). According to national figures, blacks comprise 13 percent of the American population, but over 40 percent of the arrests for rape and car theft (Puddington 5)."
