One theme in this module is the perceived tension between free exercise of religion (guaranteed under the 1st amendment to the Constitution) and equal protection under the law (guaranteed by the 14th amendment to the U.S. Constitution).

Excerpt from 1st Amendment to the U.S. Constitution
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

Excerpt from Section 1 of the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution
“No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

In short, which is more at risk: freedom of religion OR equality of all people under the law? Explain your answer.

Find and submit ten (10) Web sites related to ONE instrument you'd like to research. You may choose from any of the instruments featured in the course. Examples of valid instruments include (but are not limited to): the oboe, the mezzo-soprano voice, and the guitar.

Your submission must include:

Two sites for each one of the categories listed below

A short paragraph presenting your research in each category

The categories are:

History and/or Manufacturers:
Information about well-known makers and the instrument's history. If you choose the voice as your instrument, concentrate on its history.

Two Famous Performers for your Instrument:
Do not restrict yourself to any particular period or style. For example, if your favorite instrument is guitar, you may choose Eric Clapton and John Williams.

Two Famous composers for your Instrument:
Again, do not restrict yourself to any particular period or style. An example of a relevant web site is the Leonard Bernstein site at the Library of Congress. Did Bernstein write any pieces for your favorite instrument?

Six Repertoire Pieces for your Instrument and their Composers' Names:
What are the most famous pieces written for your chosen instrument? Submit a list of six famous pieces written for the instrument, and two (2) sites that were sources for the information. Here's a site that might help: www.naxos.com.

Two Famous Symphony Orchestras:
Your favorite instrument will likely be part of a traditional symphony orchestra, such as the one you studied in the Orchestral Timbres class. This should not be confused with a piece of music called a symphony, or a concerto, which is a piece of music for a solo instrument and orchestra. I am looking for the performing group. Please submit and comment on two (2) symphony orchestra websites. Even if the instrument you choose is not a regular member of the symphony orchestra, search two symphony orchestra websites and include what you find in your report.

1. President Bush’s Iraq War failed the fifth of the political choice themes: accurate information and reasonable assumptions concerning Iraq having nuclear weapons. Do you agree with the text? Could Bush’s Iraq War also have failed theme one on political obligation because not enough citizens protested like Sen. Bernie Sanders did? Could it have failed theme two as an uncreative solution to the problem? Or could it have failed the fifth theme but for a different reason: for the reason that the U.S. wanted more power in the oil producing region and hid this motivation? Explain.
