It is worth 12 points.  
•	Prepare an OUTLINE of a communication event (speech)    you will give.  Follow the OUTLINE protocol on p. 215 of the text!
•	It should be 3 to 5 minutes in length.  This means that the OUTLINE should have 3 to 5 main points with support.
•	The OUTLINE if done correctly as on p. 215 of the text is worth 12 points.
•	  Due date:  Friday April 24.
Premise:  You are a doctor in a small but adequate hospital in a remote area of the country.  The Board of Directors of the hospital have assigned you and six other doctors with the following task:
Problem:  The hospital has eight patients who have very serious kidney disease, but there are only five kidney machines available.  Three of the patients are likely going to die.  You and your co-workers must decide on who will or will not get a machine.
[N.B.  While relevant perhaps to our current situation, this is the same group communications problem that I have given to my CST classes for many years.  No comparison to current events is implied or intended]
You are to prepare an OUTLINE for the argument that you will make to your colleagues as to who you believe should or should not get a kidney machine.  The only information that you have about these patients is on the document linked below.  You cannot change the circumstances.
Remember, this is not an essay.  It is an OUTLINE (p. 215) for the speech you will give to your fellow doctors in attempting to convince them that your reasoning or solution is correct.
