Race sociology
In what ways have you and your family been advantaged, or disadvantaged, by structural racism? Talk to your parents, grandparents, and/or other trusted older relatives (aunts, uncles, older siblings) about topics like applying for loans, home ownership, inheritance, education, labor market experiences, segregation, etc. After you have gathered this information from your family members, think carefully about how your family members’ racial/ethnic background has affected their life trajectories. For instance, do you think that your family has benefited from white privilege? How so? (For a refresher on white privilege, you may refer to the Peggy McIntosh reading on Blackboard.)

Assignment: Analyzing Leadership for Change through
Organizational Charts
In the same way that models can be used to express your views of leadership in
general, models can also be used to express relationships with in a group or
organization. These models are based on organizational structure and are called
organizational charts. Assessing org. charts means critically comparing an
organizations structure and its function. Leadership and change occur best when those
two things are compatible.
Directions:
• In this assignment choose an organization chart
from a group or organization that you either
know about or have an interest in – this can be
your university department, or religious
community or place of work. You can use your
CBL site and use it in your report, or create one
that represents an organization that you would
like to lead in the future, that you could use in
your final paper.
• Draw it out or design it on one sheet of paper.
There are even organizational chart programs
or web pages that can help you.
• Describe this organizational chart in a way that
answers these questions:
1. How does this organizational chart reflect a hierarchy or a network/web
structure and how does that reflect the degree to which the
organization values stability versus change, and certainty versus
creativity?
2. What style of leadership do you think is promoted within this type of
structure?
3. Is this an organizational structure in which you would feel comfortable?
Notes on Grading:
Your grade will depend upon how clearly you design the organizational
chart and how you use concepts in class.
• Make sure your organizational chart clearly shows roles or titles. If you
take this from one that you know, you can also use names.
• Draw lines clearly to show relationships (with arrows if necessary) and in
your description describe how they might show differences in
power/authority or lines of communication.
• The description should be at least one and a half pages long, double
spaced, 12-point font, etc.

a) What is the probability that none of these vehicles requires warranty service? Use the Binomial equation for P(X=0).
b) What is the probability that exactly one of these vehicles requires warranty service?

4. Allen & Associates write weekend trip insurance at a very nominal charge. Records show that the probability a motorist will have an accident during the weekend and will file a claim is quite small (.0005). Suppose Alden wrote 400 policies for the forthcoming weekend. Compute the probability that exactly two claims will be filed using the equation
for Poisson Probability.
Note: The symbol ? is the mean (expected value) which we used as µ = np. So ? is nothing more than the mean number of occurrences (successes = np) in a particular interval.
Get the probability that the number of claims is at least 3 from Poisson Tables.
