Acetone is transferred to the main building through piping. The room has a portable ABC fire extinguisher on the wall. Storage Room A is a 20’ X 20’ storage room inside the main building. The plastic totes and glass bottles are stored on commercial racks on two separate walls inside the room. The aboveground storage tank (AST) is located in a corner of the room. The room has a concrete floor with CMU block walls and no drainage. There is a diked area around the AST that can hold up to 1,500 gallons of a liquid. The room has three portable ABC fire extinguishers spread throughout the room. Storage Room B is a 10’ X 10’ storage room in the main building. The room has a concrete floor and CMU walls with no drain. There are no fire extinguishers in the room. In your written spill response program, address the areas below. Explain what additional information you would need to perform a risk assessment for the hazardous materials used at the site. Where could you obtain the necessary information? After obtaining the necessary information, perform a risk assessment for health on each of the hazards using the risk assessment matrix in the unit lesson. Report the numerical score for each hazard. Discuss which hazard you believe represents the greatest health risk to workers in the area. Discuss which hazard you believe represents the greatest environmental hazard. Develop a list of the equipment and personal protective equipment (PPE) that you would recommend to be procured and maintained for a spill response for each of the hazards. Explain why you chose each of the pieces of equipment and PPE and where you would store the equipment and PPE relative to the locations of the hazardous materials. What level(s) of training do you think would be necessary for members of the spill response team if you were planning to conduct spill response operations with in-house employees? Your assignment must be at least three pages in length, not counting the title page and references page. You must include at least two academic references to support your assignment. One of the references must be from the CSU Online Library.

The Coddling of the American Mind

Read “The Coddling of the American Mind” (paragraphs 1-15) https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2015/09/the-coddling-of-the-american-mind/399356/ Discuss and draft a response that answers the following based on the above reading: How do the authors introduce their topic? What contextual factors do the authors note in their “How Did We Get Here?” section? Consider using the above E-Lessons to help guide your analysis. How might this reading connect to our ongoing “Underappreciated Research” unit? How might it serve as a model for exploring underappreciated research? I have started writing some of the assignment. all I need is to edit and add more words to get to the 270 word count to cover all the questions. What I have wrote: The authors gave a quite brief and intriguing paragraph to start this article out. They used the word “strange” to capture the audience’s attention and then began to discuss a movement that is being led by the next generation of adults. A lot of the contextual factors are historical as they discussed what took place in the 60s and the 90s to give their audience a better idea of how the current situation became present. It discusses generational shifts which seems to tie in the idea of social context too as socially, a lot of things change over each generation.  This reading seems to tie into our ongoing “Underappreciated Research” unit because it shows us an example of how to locate context. w

Major Paper: Editorial         Assignment:               Choose a campus or community issue in which you have a personal interest, or choose a global issue that is in the news and directly affects you. Read as much background information as you can on the topic: news articles, editorials, columns, letters to the editor, websites, and journal articles. Decide what your position is on the issue, and write a guest editorial for a specific newspaper or online news site.  **You may not write about abortion, the drinking age, or any other topic I feel is overdone. You must get approval of your topic from me before you submit your rough draft. In this essay, you must identify a debatable question or issue, take a position in the debate, argue your position with evidence, and address at least one counterargument. A successful argument essay will be a balanced examination of an issue that is important to you. Your purpose is to convince your reader that your issue is worthy of debate and that your position is worth embracing. In your argument essay, you will include background—an overview of the issue, problem, or debate to give your reader some context—and a thesis statement in which you establish your position. Your essay should demonstrate your understanding of and respect for other perspectives in the debate; finding common ground will make your argument stronger. You will devote most of the body of your essay to presenting evidence and reasons in favor of your position. The evidence can come from  statistics research findings testimony from experts or individuals affected by the issue government or agency reports photographs or videos other sources You are required to do some research to gather evidence and define the issue. Use at least three sources. Remember that good research helps you present yourself as knowledgeable and fair-minded. A successful argument will use logical and emotional appeals that are appropriate to the purpose and audience.  In the body of your essay, you should also include a counterargument, a position that represents an objection to your position. As you plan out your argument, think about where to place the counterargument and how you’ll respond to it. There is no best place for the counterargument. Close the essay with a restatement of your thesis and some sense of what’s at stake in this debate. Assume an open-minded academic audience. Include a works cited list.  **A note about research and resources: While you will need to perform background reading to familiarize yourself with the subject, the ideas and wording of your editorial must be your own.  You must cite at least two authoritative sources which you have found through our databases.   Requirements:           750-1000 words, typed, double spaced, Times New Roman 12-pt. font, MLA style. Submit both a hard copy to me and an e-copy to turnitin.com by class time on the date the paper is due.  See the syllabus for late penalties.            Objectives: ? to understand and demonstrate writing processes through invention, organization, drafting, revision, editing, and presentation ? to understand the importance of specifying audience, purpose, and genre and to select appropriate communication choices based on those factors ? to understand and apply appropriately persuasive modes of expression ? to participate effectively in groups with emphasis on listening, critical and reflective thinking, and responding ? to craft a thesis-driven essay ? to use feedback in revision
