  1. School Integration and MCPS

  2. Give students one of three short scenarios and have them answer the questions. • Scenario I: A 21-year-old graduate of Amherst College applies to the University of Maryland Law School and is rejected despite strong qualifications. What could explain this? What would you advise him to do? • Scenario II: A Rockville area elementary school teacher is being paid less than half the amount his colleagues at other schools make. What could explain this? What would you recommend he do about it? • Scenario III: An 18-year-old girl nervously enters the gates of Glen Echo Amusement Park. As she climbs on to the spotted yellow horse on the merry-go-round her heart beats quickly. Why do you think she respond this way? What would you tell her if you were her friend?
