Thermal Stressors Report Bob Sanders (your supervisor) has another job for you. Acme Manufacturing Co. was impressed by your last report, and they have asked you to return to complete another job. BSCI has been contracted by Acme Manufacturing Co. to conduct a study at one of its facilities to determine employee exposures to various thermal stressors at different times. You are to conduct this study in January and July of 2012. After collecting and recording data from the field assessments, prepare a written report for Bob Sanders (CSP) to present to the Board of Directors. During your field investigations, you find the following field observations: Security Personnel The security personnel, while contracted by Acme, are still employees that need to be monitored. There are three main entries that are staffed with security personnel. These entries have a booth, which is roughly 5’x5’ with no heating or cooling. Each security officer works an eight hour shift, with two separate fifteen minute breaks (one during the first half of the shift, and the second during the second half of the shift) and one 30-minute meal break. The only opportunity to rehydrate is made during the break or meal periods. There are no drinking fountains or coolers in the security booths. Calculate the wind chill factor and wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) for each location.

At the time, we had been together for just about four years and him deciding toenlist was a total shock for me. In the years past, he talked about wanting to go to college topursue a career in video game programming; however, that completely changed when he spoketo a United States Marines recruiter at our high school career fair. He started going to therecruitment office close to his house to speak with a recruiter about joining. As soon as heexpressed interest in possibly joining, his recruiter was determined to deter his mind away fromgoing to college and stress that he should join the Marines instead. I questioned this since he wasonly eighteenat the time and did not really have a clear idea of what he wanted to do with hislife. I felt like his recruiter was pushing him into making a decision that he was not totally sureof. However, his recruiter’s job was to get him to enlist by whatever means necessary, so that isexactly what she did. On July 25th, 2016, my fiancé officially enlisted into the Marines andhopped on a plane to head to three months of military boot camp at Marine Corps Recruit Depot,San Diego. After he was gone I was left wondering, are eighteen year olds really mature enoughto make a decision that will greatly impact their lives and the people around them? Thisexperience has caused me to ask the question, should the United States military be allowed totarget teenagers in its recruitment efforts?The first source I decided to look at was an academic journal I found in the librarydatabases. The journal title immediately caught my eye, so I figured that it would be a goodplace to start. The article titled, “Should We End Military Recruiting in High Schools as a Matterof Child Protection and Public Health?”, was written by Amy Hagopian and Kathy Barker. Itwas published intheAmerican Journal of Public Healthin January of 2011. Amy Hagopian hasher PhD and works in the Department of Global Health at the University of Washington.Hagopian was also the president of the Garfield High School Parent Teacher Association from2004 to 2006. Kathy Barker has her PhD as well and is a science writer. Along with Hagopian,Barker is also on the board of the Garfield High School Parent Teacher Association in Seattle,Washington. Considering these credentials, I knew these writers would be trustworthy sources ofinformation.In this article, the authors start by explaining the public health issues for young recruits.Hagopian and Barker explain how “the bulk of newly enlisted military personnel aredevelopmentally in late adolescence--a time of relatively robust physical health but notnecessarily complete brain development or a wise time to introduce high levels of stress” (19). Itis scientifically proven that a person’s brain is not fully developed until the age of twenty-five,therefore, introducing eighteen year olds to this kind of stress can cause major problems. Theauthors explain how high levels of stress can cause adolescents to be more likely to developmental disorders, like alcohol abuse, anxiety syndromes, depression, and post-traumatic stressdisorder. Studies have shown that “younger soldiers had 30% to 60% more substanceabusedisorders than did older soldiers, and younger women in particular had the highest incidence ofattempted suicide or self-inflicted injuries” (19). This statistic presents a vital problem withrecruiting young people who are still maturing physicallyand psychologically. The article alsotalks about the efforts of the Garfield High School Parent Teacher Association. Hagopian andBarker, along with other members of this association, tried to put a stop to military recruiting inGarfield High School. Once the press got ahold of this news, the story spread like wildfire.Ultimately, the Seattle school board worked with students and activists to come up with ahandful of rules to be put in place. The school board and these activists decided that “recruitervisits were limited to one per semester, visits were to be announced in advance, and militaryrecruiters were no longer free to roam through the school building” (21). Although Garfield HighSchool worked hard to try and stop military recruiting, it is something that can not be easilyavoided.While reading this source, I was intrigued by the topics Hagopian and Barker brought up.I am currently majoring in psychology, so all of the psychological aspects they brought up in thisarticle were ones that I was familiar with. It is important to know that at eighteen a person is intheir peak stage of development and their brain is still maturing. I agree with the fact thatintroducing high levels of stress to young people who are still maturing can cause problems. Thestatistics they put in the article about the rates of mental illnesses on young and old soldiersdefinitely helps reinforce this belief as well. I appreciate how the authors took a stand in theirown community to try and warn Garfield High School about the health issues that militaryrecruiting can have on young adolescents. Their efforts to try and ban military recruiting to keeptheir students out of harm's way was definitely inspirational to me.Although I believe a lot of the important information shared in this article, there are somepoints brought up that I question. I question the point Hagopian and Barker make about recruitersbeing like predators. The authors explain how the behaviors of recruiters are remarkably similarto those of childpredators who use “predatory grooming” to gain a child’s trust. While childpredators and recruiters may both use persuasion, I would not go as far to say that the wordsshould be used in conjunction. In my opinion, I feel like comparing the two terms isa little farfetched. Although recruiters do use persuasive measures to try and make people enlist, they arenot doing so in an illegal or abusive manner.Overall, this source helped contribute many important ideas to my research question. Ilearned moreabout the health effects that can be caused by high stress environments at a youngage. Also, I was able to see statistics of how many young soldiers end up with mental healthissues, which was far more than that of the older soldiers. I enjoyed how the article talked aboutGarfield High School’s efforts to try and ban military recruiters from coming to their school. Itwas interesting to see the outcome of a school who took a stand to make sure their students werenot being taken advantage of. For my nextsource, I would like to look into more of thepsychological issues and health issues that can be caused by enlisting at such a young age when aperson’s brain is not completely developed.Works CitedHagopian, Amy and Kathy Barker.

ASSIGNMENT: Following the Topic Selection Guidelines below, choose an argumentative topic to research. This will be your topic throughout the entire course, so the activities required for this assignment will provide the foundation for your future Touchstones. The topic for an argumentative research paper must be a debatable topic, meaning that it involves conflicting viewpoints. Additionally, it cannot be a topic that is already decided or agreed upon by most of society. You will need to take a firm position on the topic and use evidence and logic to support the position. Touchstone 1.2 includes a research question, a working thesis, a detailed outline, and a reflection on this pre-writing process.A. Topic Selection GuidelinesDIRECTIONS: You may choose any topic you wish as long as the topic has two clear sides and is not agreed upon by most of society. Your topic should be current, appropriate for an academic context and should have a focus suitable for a 6-8 page essay.In order to foster learning and growth, all essays you submit must be newly written specifically for this course. Any recycled work will be sent back with a 0, and you will be given one attempt to redo the Touchstone.B. Research GuidelinesDIRECTIONS: Refer to the list below throughout the writing process. Do not submit your Touchstone until it meets these guidelines.1. Research Question and Working ThesisKeep in mind: The research question and working thesis are the driving force behind your research and eventual argument.❒ Your research question should be a single sentence, framed as a question.❒ Your working thesis should be a single focused sentence, framed as a statement that takes a clear position on the research question.❒ Include your research question followed by your working thesis.2. Detailed OutlineKeep in mind: Your detailed outline provides a map of the argumentative research essay that you will write, including your key claims and the sources that support them. You may not have all your sources yet, and that is fine. The outline is a way to organize your essay and determine which areas (e.g. your sub-points) will require researched evidence as support.❒ Headings: one for each paragraph with a brief label of the paragraph’s controlling idea(s).❒ An introduction, at least five body paragraphs, and a conclusion.❒ Introduction includes your working thesis.❒ Body paragraphs should each have their own unique title and key points.❒ At least one body paragraph is devoted to addressing counterarguments.❒ Conclusion includes notes on your final thoughts.❒ Subheadings: two to five for each paragraph, below each heading, indicating key points that support the controlling idea❒ Sources: one to three for each paragraph, as relevant, indicating the support for the key points❒ For each source, include the author’s name and the idea or information relevant to your argument (e.g. “Lappé on mono-cropping corn/soy and production”).3. Reflection❒ Have you displayed a clear understanding of the research activities?❒ Have you answered all reflection questions thoughtfully and included insights, observations, and/or examples in all responses?❒ Are your answers included on a separate page below the main assignment?C. Reflection QuestionsDIRECTIONS: Below your assignment, include answers to all of the following reflection questions.Learning to conduct research is important because it is a skill you will use both in academia and in your professional life. It improves critical thinking and empowers you to find information for yourself. Consider the process of researching as a whole. What was the most challenging aspect of the process for you? (2-3 sentences)The working thesis statement is a proposed answer to your research question. It should clearly identify a debatable topic and take a position on one side of that topic. Analyze the effectiveness of your working thesis statement. (3-4 sentences)A detailed outline is an effective tool for laying out the progression of an argument. It allows you to consider the arrangement and organization of your ideas, as well as choose places to incorporate outside source materials. Review your detailed outline and summarize the argument you've presented. (3-4 sentences)You will use the same topic on three of the remaining Touchstones in this course. What kind of feedback would be helpful for you? What are specific questions you might have as you go deeper into the research process? (2-3 sentences)
