Abstract
This essay was designed to explore the moral and ethical implications of the Tuskegee Syphilis Study. The essay opens with the breaking of the story by the Associated press, and then follows it to its conclusion in 1975. The paper debates the moral and ethical nature with the scientific benefits of the study. Susan M. Reverby's book titled "Tuskegee's Truths: Rethinking the Tuskegee Syphilis Study", is cited many times throughout the essay. While this essay is important for the historical information provided, it also puts the study in it's time, exploring the effects it had on the Civil Rights movement and the future relationship of African Americans with medical society.

From the Paper
"The Associated Press brought to light the history and existence of a forty year old study of syphilis in Tuskegee, Alabama. Four hundred men with syphilis and two hundred men without, generally poor and uneducated, all of them African American, had been receiving regular physical examinations, but received no treatment for their syphilis. The story was scandalous and controversial. Close on the heels of the Civil Rights movement and just at the height of the Vietnam War, the expose of the Tuskegee Syphilis Study shocked the public and ignited waves of suspicion that would hover over Public Health Services and the Federal government like a dense, dark cloud. Central to the outrage was the fact that the Tuskegee Syphilis Study was not being widely covered in media forums. The administrators of the study were countless, the victims were many, and those who had read articles on the study numbered in the thousands."

Abstract
This marketing strategy is designed to convince Americans to contribute to the United Negro College Fund.

From the Paper
"The United Negro College Fund has a unique marketing opportunity in the fact that the first African-American President of the United States, newly elected Barack Obama, lived in Chicago prior to entering the White House. A marketing campaign can be developed around this fact leveraging the idea that Chicago can give rise to some of the nation's most prominent citizens if, as with Obama, they are provided a quality education. The slogan for the new campaign will be Obama is..."

Abstract
The writer of this paper presents a thorough overview of the baseball phenomenon of the Negro League. It examines the early beginnings of this group in the late 1800's and how this helped integration into the sports arena. It then looks at the highlights of this league and some of the famous players. Finally the writer examines how this league closed and merged with major league baseball.

From the Paper
"The history of the Negro League in baseball has recently received new interest after a half a century of benign neglect. Baseball fans realize that Blacks played baseball before 1974, of course, because they know that Jackie Robinson moved out of the Negro Leagues to play for the Brooklyn Dodgers, thus integrating what most people thought of as "major league baseball." The history of the teams that created Robinson and thousands of other talented athletes deserves more attention."

Abstract
This paper examines one student's perspective of the collaborative efforts of a group working on a case study. The author examines the roles of each person in the group and how effective they were in carrying out their respective responsibilities. The paper then goes on to describe the strengths and weaknesses of the group and the challenges that they faced while working together.

From the Paper
"I think a major challenge to the group, especially from the beginning, was how headstrong everyone was. These were all born leaders, and working together brought out a level of precieved arrogance as they were all accustomed to leading. This arrogance is what kept members from dialoging and participating in the group setting initially. The challenge was getting these people to buy into the team concept, and want to work together as peers instead of leaders to achieve a greater goal."

Abstract
This paper is a response to the AcuScan case study, identifying where assumptions and fallacies took place and recommending alternatives. The paper includes an executive summary.

From the Paper
"The situation at AcuScan is exacerbated by the fact that the principals involved are all making unwarranted assumptions. The first assumption by Cliff O'Connor in the Scanner Weekly is that AcuScan will continue to take the market by storm in the coming year, a rather optimistic assumption considering that the budget cuts and layoffs have still not brought revenues in line with costs and sales and service are slipping. In his memo to department heads, Cliff states that he is confident the company will recapture..."

Abstract
This paper discusses the philosophies of three leading figures of the Harlem Renaissance--Langston Hughes, George Schuyler and W.E.B. DuBois. The paper describes Langston Hughes' "The Negro and the Racial Mountain" in which he attempts to prove that the desire to not be associated with a specific ethnic class is tantamount to racial self-hatred. The author then explains that George Schuyler in his "The Negro Art Hokum" argues that African-American artists are not some sort of unified bloc and that the imposition of subject matter and style is belittling and racist. Next, the author of the paper applies the conclusions of Hughes and Schuyler to two paintings by Beauford Delaney, a prominent painter of the Harlem Renaissance. The paper concludes that the fairest and most logical approach to the study of "Negro Art" lies somewhere between Langston Hughes and George Schuyler.

From the Paper
"Another of Delaney's works that highlights the necessity of forming a compromise between Hughes' and Schuyler's contrasting theories on art is his famous pastel drawing of James Baldwin, the American writer and novelist. Although the two were close friends, Delaney does not attempt to transmit, through his strokes, a sense of his love of and appreciation for Baldwin. Had he wanted to do that, he surely would have created a different portrait than the eerie, anxiety-riddled, and yellow-hued portrait that he actually made."
