Assignment:
At a minimum, each student will be expected to post an original and thoughtful response to the DB question and contribute to the weekly dialogue by responding to at least two other posts from students. The first contribution must be posted before midnight (Central Time) on Wednesday of each week. Two additional responses are required after Wednesday of each week. Students are highly encouraged to engage on the Discussion Board early and often, as that is the primary way the university tracks class attendance and participation.
The purpose of the Discussion Board is to allow students to learn through sharing ideas and experiences as they relate to course content and the DB question. Because it is not possible to engage in two-way dialogue after a conversation has ended, no posts to the DB will be accepted after the end of each unit.
You friend, Patricia, owns a restaurant and currently employs 15 people. She has asked for your advice about employment law.

• Does the Immigration Reform and Control Act apply to Patricia's restaurant? Explain.
• What are the consequences to an employer if it hires an unauthorized alien?
• Do you agree with these consequences? Explain.
• What policies and procedures should Patricia put in place to be in compliance with the Immigration Reform and Control Act?
