301--Final Project

This is it, gang. what we've been working towards. Everything I've tried to teach you will help you survive this final task.

You are going to ask for something. Sounds easy, hmm? Not really. You are going to knowingly and willfully employ hegemony to generate reciprocity from one of two people. Dean Bristow agreed to this and I really hope he can still play it Friday, as did Red. Today I'll help you. We've prepped a bit, but now it gets intense because I will not send you into battle without a plan. Ok?

Choose your audience, and choose your request. I'll be checking and if you need help, ask.

Ok, kids. Go.

Amazed that something she said actually sounded "right" to someone other than herself, Anya smiles.

"I was part owner in a business before I came here and I really liked doing that. Right now, I work at the bookstore in town, which would be o.k. if I could just get the owner to understand the importance of selling the merchandise instead of loaning it out. It's not a library....."

Mr. Phale's? He's a generous guy. He really should sell more. Ten bought a book, but he bought it from Mr. Crowley.

Oh yes! Mr. Crawley, he's a good business man and a dope dresser. But Phale, well I'm not sure how his business is still in business with his managerial skills.

Any ideas on how you could make the business better? It might help you convince the dean of your asset control skills.

I'm working on getting Phale to understand the importance of money. Crowley has been very supportive in helping me with that. I also have drawn up signs with prices for all the other things he insists on giving away.
