Discuss How to Handle a Detail Involving a Large Group

question 19

Essay

Discuss how to handle a detail involving a large group of partying teenagers. First, discuss locker-room truisms, rules of thumb, that you have heard about how to do such a job. Second, critique these rules of thumb and consider alternative ways to do the job. Note that the reason for having this discussion is to emphasize the idea there is more than one way to handle any type of detail-there are, in common vernacular, "many ways to skin a cat."
