and Selected Policy Issues Professor: R.L. McNeely, Ph.D., J.D. Office: Enderis 1039 Office Hrs: By Appointment Office Phone: 229-4851; 229-5003 Res. Phone: (262) 255-4015 Fax/E-mail: (262) 255-4019; rlmatty@wi.rr.com I. Purpose, Objectives and Constraints of the Course
This course is designed with the intention that it will be an educationally meaningful fun experience for students. Contrasting viewpoints about controversial matters under discussion are welcome in the spirit of hearty, cordial, in-class debate, even if such viewpoints differ from those expressed by the instructor. All viewpoints, however, should be framed by solid empirical evidence. There are no onerous testing or classroom assignments, although students are expected to participate in class discussions, and to engage in self-directed library research and study. It is assumed that students enrolled in the course are earnestly seeking information on the topical areas covered by the course and will be "self-starters" in pursuit of that goal. The primary educational purpose of the course is to focus attention to the importance of workplace conditions on individual health and social functioning to those who plan to be providers of human services. Particular emphasis is placed on selected problems and issues of salience for women in the U.S. workforce (such as "comparable worth," innovative work/family balancing programs, the influence on children's development of various maternal employment patterns, etc.). The course also focuses upon selected policy issues relevant to topics covered in the class through student discussions that follow some of the course's lecture segments. Stated briefly, the course examines: (1) pertinent issues affecting young adult, middle-aged and older (particularly female) workers; (2) genderal differences among the races with respect to important sociodemographic and experiential factors; (3) the occupational distribution of women versus men in the economy and the shaping influence of employment patterns and other factors on cosmological differences; and (4) selected social policy implications by topical area. This course is limited by an important constraint. It would be advantageous to examine all major work and family issues by occupation, gender and adult life-cycle stages. Presently, this is not possible because data are incomplete, and data that are available often are contradictory. Hence, the analysis either often will shift across occupational categories, sex of worker and life-cycle stages, or selected topics will be delivered as autonomous units of material. One important limitation is that there is inadequate evidence relating work and family factors to workplace productivity patterns. These and other limitations may affect the overall symmetry of the course.

Course Readings
There are no assigned readings for this course. Numerous bibliographic references, however, are provided within the instant syllabus from which students may select readings of individual interest. The collection of readings listed in the syllabus does not exhaust all possible books, articles nor topics that a student may wish to explore. One reason that there are no assigned readings is because there are no current in-print texts that cover the content of the course. Another reason there are no assigned readings is to allow students maximum flexibility, in pursuing their own educational goals, with respect to seeking content on work and family areas

PLEASE REVIEW EXEMPLARS (Angela Engel) IN RESERVE WING OF LIBRARY An oral final examination integrating the content of the course will conclude the semester.
V.
Work Teams
Although the presentations of individual team members are conceived as being the product of individual effort, it is expected that team members will interface prior to the presentations in order to achieve a reasonable degree of presentational symmetry. For example, no team members may present on the same article or book and members presenting on articles with contradictory findings should be prepared to offer plausible explanations for the conflicts. It is advisable, thus, for teams to meet and discuss their presentations prior to presenting, and it is advisable that annotated summaries be shared within teams prior to presentations. Students are expected to be responsible members of their work teams. Students must notify the instructor if a team member is not acting according to this standard (contributing responsibly as a team member). Efforts to mediate the situation will follow notification.
VI.
Presentations
Each member of a team, ideally, should make his or her own oral presentations. The instructor, however, is aware that infrequent circumstances arise wherein a student may not be able to attend class on a presentation date. The instructor is agreeable to a missed date if the student secures the consent of his/her team for missing the presentation, and one or more members of the team agree(s) to present the absent student's presentation. Please contact the instructor prior to the scheduled presentation if a presentation must be missed. Explanations provided after scheduled presentation dates will be considered only if some major event has occurred and can be documented (e.g., automobile accident, unanticipated hospitalization, etc.). Team members not making presentations must petition the instructor at least two weeks prior to the presentation. Also, the instructor may waive some presentations (in large classes) but summaries still must be submitted.

An "incomplete" may be awarded to a student who has carried a subject successfully until the end of the semester but who, because of illness, or other unusual and substantiated cause beyond the student's control, has been unable to take or complete the required assignments, final examination, or some other limited amount of term work.
