1. With Condoleezza Rice and Hilary Clinton serving as Secretaries of State and
Nancy Pelosi in the line of presidential succession, it may be easy for many to
neglect the oppressive conditions under which most women live. Six female
recipients of the Nobel Peace Prize have formed the Nobel Women’s Initiative to

Access their website to learn more of their lives, mission, and work. In what ways
is their mission applicable to the limitations on women in your community and
nation? Be sure to use multiple examples to support your ideas as well as
scholarly research. Be sure to also meet the criteria as outlined above for your
second paper.
2. Social psychologists have found that one method of reducing discrimination
between diverse groups is to join members from diverse groups into task-focused
teams with a common goal. Unfortunately, there are few social institutions

library’s search engines, evaluate the evidence that suggests that public schools
are more highly segregated today than they were ten years ago. What steps
would you take to develop social institutions that would increase social
interactions between races and ethnicities? How effective do you think these
efforts would be in helping to erode prejudice and bias? Be sure to use multiple
examples to support your ideas as well as scholarly research. Be sure to also
meet the criteria as outlined above for your second paper.
