I have sent you the Human Rights Internet assignment via the e-mail distribution list. If you didn't receive it, let me know. This assignment is due on Thursday. If you missed class today, you missed a couple of handouts that you will need to get from me.


We started Topic B today. I gave you a list of glossary terms that you need to write out. Please make your own glossary of terms for this Topic. Here is the study guide for your International Conflict Unit Final (which covers World War I):

I need help with the Rights Assignment. I cannot find out the outcome of two panel decisions. Question 8

Kevin Gilchrist said...

Those bolded headings should be helpful. You need to look in those sections to find the answers.

You might have to read a bit. Check out some of the 2005 decisions at this hyperlink:

You have to choose a case I believe for that question, right?

Kevin Gilchrist said...

In some of the cases the complaint was dismissed and in others it was held.
