You will prepare and submit a term paper on Working, a Necessary Evil for Students. Your paper should be a minimum of 2500 words in length. The number of students who work full-time jobs in addition to taking classes full-time has also increased as more and more students are finding it necessary to support or at least partially support themselves and their families as they complete their education. As a result of these trends, the question is often raised whether or not the advantages of juggling two highly stressful full-time activities outweigh the disadvantages. After all, the goal of higher education is to learn, and working full-time can only be a detriment to this objective. Working increases stress levels because it takes time away from studies and the student never seems to have the time to complete their school assignments to the best of their ability or to participate in extra-curricular activities that might reinforce what they learn in the classroom. They are working as hard as they can but constantly underachieve in both the classroom and the workplace, a distressing dilemma that over a four-year period causes great stress and many to leave school altogether. While it is recognized that working is necessary in many cases, it seems clear that students would have a better chance to reach their full scholastic potential if they were provided the opportunity to remain focused on school before work.

The proof that there is a problem with too many students finding it necessary to work to get themselves through school can be found in the sheer numbers of students who must work. New studies have indicated that most students currently attending American colleges and universities are finding it necessary to hold paid employment positions while attending classes. More than three-quarters of all students claim they have to work at least part-time to help pay for their tuition and a full quarter of freshmen, who are somewhat overwhelmed just being at college for the first time, said they would have to work full-time to stay in school (Reisberg, 2000). The number of students having to work is steadily increasing. More students are in the workforce today than ever before.

I am requesting assistance with this assignment and it has to do with Security Management. I am needing at least 600 words. Though to be honest I am a little confused by this assignment so needing someone to assist.

Assignment:

Part I-

In relation to Security Management identify “threespecific” research topics and examine their viability as a project or paper. Be comprehensive and detailed.

Here I am thinking- Cyber Security, Training and Development, and Workplace Violence (or any suggest topics) in regards to Security Management. 

Part II

Considering your three prospective research topics; thoroughly discuss a preliminary research plan that would be necessary to complete a strong project/paper that comprehensively incorporates appropriate academic and other legitimate sources.

Example given by Professor in regards to the assignment:

Below is a submission of three topics AND one acceptable way to present the topics in part 2.

Part IIdentify “threespecific” research topics and examine their viability as a capstone project or paper. Be comprehensive and detailed.1) Federal Air Marshals – Are they cost effective and do they really provide appropriate security in the post 9/11 transportation arena?2) Has homeland security initiatives made a significant impact in immigration and contraband smuggling across the U.S./Mexican border?3) Why has terrorism become a focused private security issue when the probability of a terrorist attack is highly unlikely?Part IIConsidering your three prospective research topics; thoroughly discuss a preliminary research plan that would be necessary to complete a strong project/paper that comprehensively incorporates appropriate academic and other legitimate sources.1) Federal Air Marshals – Are they cost effective and do they really provide appropriate security in the post 9/11 transportation arena?Specific Aim: Explore the viability of the Federal Air Marshal (FAM) Program. What are the American people getting for their dollar? Are Air Marshal’s the only answer to avoiding a similar 9/11 attack? Are there any viable alternatives?Background and Significance: Basically, the FAM program became a spotlight topic post 9/11. The mere fact the United States (U.S.) is in (or was in) an economic depression makes the funding of FAM a significant challenge.

Primary research: Primary research is firsthand knowledge, anecdotal information, etc. You will probably not be using primary sources in the capstone process.

Secondary research: Historical books related to 9/11 and terrorism; Air Marshal Training documentation (unclassified); prior security management course text books related to cost effectivenessTertiary research: abundant media source information dating back to 2001; Including the forming of the agency and numerous accounts of bad management and misconduct.Preliminary Studies: The student plans to use some former FAM and law enforcement employment knowledge to substantiate and expand on the research from that point.Research Design and Method:The research method will be qualitative in nature drawing mostly from archival resources.

Note: Remember that the methods available for scientific research are qualitative, quantitative, or mixed method – those are your ONLY choices.Follow the aforementioned pattern for your second and third potential topicsConclusion:Of the three, the student would prefer the FAM proposal. The student already has a considerable amount of documentation in relation to the topic and a variety of academic, governmental, and media sources exist to expand the research effort.
