Assignment: Analyze this case using course concepts we have studied so far. Write an essay

essay and in the corresponding References Cited section at the end of the essay. Reminder:
you cannot use Wikipedia or the websites of other universities;
Create a Microsoft Word document, using double-spacing, paragraphs and subheadings for
each component;
There is no set length for your essay although 500 words or more will probably be needed to
provide sound analysis;
Carefully edit your essay for grammar and spelling errors and for presentation style.
