Explain your reasoning as to why or why not and how you would rule on his case as the judge.
You were just hired as an intern for a recently confirmed United States District Court judge. Her first case involves a lawsuit brought by a college athlete whose scholarship was revoked, and he was dismissed from his state’s public university for his actions on the baseball field.
At the beginning of each game, players who are standing in front of the dugout are expected to stand and salute the flag as veterans from each branch of the military are honored. In protest of the current president and the ongoing war in Afghanistan, instead of saluting, the player knelt, pulled a cut-up flag from his bat bag, and draped it over his jersey. The player was immediately escorted from the field and permanently withdrawn from the public university under its Code of Conduct that requires all sports team players to salute the flag during opening ceremonies. The student athlete has sued the university and its president under 42 U.S.C § 1983 for a violation of his constitutional right of freedom of speech. Assume for purposes of this discussion that the state university’s actions constitute state action.
After reading the case of Texas v. Johnson, 491 U.S. 397 (1989), focus your discussion on the following:
- Determine whether this student athlete’s First-Amendment right of free speech has been violated.
- Explain your reasoning as to why or why not and how you would rule on his case as the judge.
- Explain how the doctrine of stare decisis would factor into your official decision.
- In a separate paragraph that is not a part of your official decision, discuss whether you personally agree with the majority opinion or with the dissenting justices in the Texas v. Johnson, case and explain why.

As a clerk for an Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, prepare a 4–5-page opinion for the Court based on the following facts:
James Smith was arrested for burglarizing his next-door neighbor’s apartment in the state of California. And without the benefit of a warrant, the neighbor, who is a friend of Mr. Smith, forced open the front door to Mr. Smith’s apartment and saw his property. The neighbor called the police, and they immediately arrested Mr. Smith for burglary and possession of stolen property out of fear that he would get rid of the property before they returned with a search warrant. Mr. Smith’s convictions in the state and federal courts were upheld, and it is now before the U.S. Supreme Court. Prepare the Court’s response to the challenge that Mr. Smith’s constitutional rights were violated.
Be sure to include the following in your opinion:
- Identify specific examples in the language of prior decisions.
- Examine some of the arguments used by the framers of the Constitution while debating the language of the document.

When you become stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed in your life, what do you do and where do you go to address the feeling? How do you take care of yourself?
When you become stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed in your life, what do you do and where do you go to address the feeling? How do you take care of yourself?
The same calming behaviors that you employ now, as a student or simply as a human being, can translate into self-care behaviors you use as a social worker. The term self-care applies to any activities you engage in to rejuvenate your mental, physical, spiritual, or emotional well-being. Because of the demands of the profession, it is important to think about the tools you will use to remain present for your clients—without succumbing to burnout. Self-care reinforces the old adage that you can only care for others if you also care for yourself.
In this Discussion, you explore self-care strategies to incorporate into your practice in order to alleviate burnout.

Post:
- Identify one to two self-care activities that you would find relaxing for each of the following five senses. Make this your personal set of self-care activities:
Sight: Choose something that you would watch or view (e.g., watching a sunset or seeing your children play in the yard).
Hear: Choose an activity that incorporates sounds (e.g., listening to your favorite music or hearing the crickets at night).
Taste: Choose a food or drink that is soothing (e.g., drinking a cup of herbal tea or your favorite smoothie); however, make sure this activity does not include something unhealthy (e.g., smoking, drinking alcohol).
Touch: Choose a comforting physical sensation (e.g., wearing your favorite sweater or putting on a cozy pair of slippers).
Smell: Choose an aroma that calms you (e.g., smelling a scented candle or freshly mowed grass).
- Describe how you will make time in your schedule to incorporate at least two of the above self-care activities.
- You can set aside just 15 minutes in your day; it doesn’t have to be a large commitment. Try to be specific about when you could make time for yourself.
