CU Dealing With Complexity Essay

As the producer and correspondent of a television or radio news magazine (like 60 Minutes, VICE News, or All Things Considered),
you have been assigned to deliver an informative 12-minute segment on
one of the contemporary issues you and your classmates have been
discussing during the past three weeks. Corporate policy requires that
you consider insights from two or more academic disciplines for example:
nursing and social work, or philosophical ethics, psychology, and
biology. (Note: These are only examples; you are free to choose your own
disciplines!) It also requires that you interview credible
representatives of at least two distinct positions on the issue. You
need not remain neutral on the issue; in fact, you are expected to state
and defend your own position with clear reasoning in your own words.

You will choose which of the complex social issues to present here.
The intended audience for your segment is an intelligent but perhaps
uninformed public, so this is your opportunity to engage them in an
issue that matters to you.
