- Consider the following principles and respond to the question.
I. Principle 1: Vicarious liability is a doctrine holding one person strictly liable for the wrong of another, without regard to fault.
II. Principle 2: An employer may be vicariously liable for the employee’s action if the employee’s act was an outgrowth of his employment, inherent in the working environment, typical of or broadly incidental to the employer’s business, or, in a general way, foreseeable from his duties.
III. Principle 3: No vicarious liability on employers for the intentional wrongs by employees unless the employee’s actions were done, at least in part, to serve the interest of the employer. - Consider the following scenario and respond to the questions.
Imagine that society can be divided into Xs and Ys, and X and Y refer to people with different physical characteristics or other characteristics that can easily be observed or discovered, such as race, ethnicity, immigrant status, or religious practices. Within each group, there are good and bad types. Assume that the Xs are wealthier and more politically powerful than the Ys perhaps because they are more numerous, or because they are descended from a politically powerful group. Under such conditions, it is possible that members of X will signal their cooperative propensity by discriminating against the Ys. Discrimination functions as a signal because it is costly (one gives up the opportunity to do business or socialize with Ys who are good types), and because conspiracy theories based on traditional fears of people with physical or cultural differences, or people who are recent arrivals, provide a focal point: given these beliefs, those who discriminate against outsiders will appear to be loyal to the insiders. In equilibrium all or most Xs will avoid Ys (and those who do not will be ostracized by the Xs and may seek refuge with the Ys), and almost all Y’s will avoid the Xs, falling back on each other when it is desirable to enter cooperative ventures. Finally, we assume that because of their political and economic dominance, members of X control the government, including the criminal justice system. - Company A announced record-breaking profits this year, attributing its success to a new marketing strategy.

Linguistics, an intricate and ever-evolving academic discipline, has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent decades, transcending its origins as a mere study of language to become a profound exploration of the complexities of human cognition and communication. The expanding purview of linguistics is a testament to its growing significance in understanding our world and enhancing our technological prowess. One of the most fundamental paradigm shift within linguistics has been its transition from a prescriptive to a descriptive approach. Early linguistic studies, embodied by the structuralist principles of Ferdinand de Saussure, predominantly focused on normative rules and language structures. However, the advent of modern linguistics, spearheaded by Noam Chomsky’s groundbreaking generative grammar theory, has heralded a new era of linguistic inquiry—one that seeks to understand not how languages should be used but how they are used in practice. This transformation has enabled linguists to uncover the underlying universals that govern human language, revealing its intricate tapestry. The synergy between linguistics and computer science has been instrumental in shaping our digital age. The birth of computational linguistics has given rise to transformative technologies, such as machine translation, speech recognition, and sentiment analysis. These applications, weaving the intricacies of human language with cutting-edge technology, have revolutionised fields as diverse as e-commerce, healthcare, and social media. The confluence of linguistics and computer science continues to chart new frontiers, shedding light on the symbiotic relationship between humans and machines. Moreover, interdisciplinary collaborations have propelled linguistics into uncharted territories. Cognitive linguistics marries linguistic theory with insights from psychology, neuroscience, and anthropology, unravelling the profound interplay between language and human cognition. Sociolinguistics and anthropological linguistics delve into the social and cultural dimensions of language, elucidating linguistic variations and their socio-cultural implications. This interdisciplinary nexus enriches our understanding of how language permeates all facets of human life.- AILET BALLB (Hons.) - 2024

It is not surprising that students are experiencing a wide range of mental health challenges, such as paralyzing stress, anxiety and depression. In 2021-22, the National Health Survey found that college students’ anxiety and depression were at historic levels, with 37 percent reporting some anxiety and 44 percent experiencing some depression in the two weeks prior to the survey. Moreover, approximately 83 percent reported that emotional or mental difficulties had impaired their academic performance at some time during the month prior to taking the survey. Although some observers might try to dismiss these statistics as just a result of the pandemic, national data suggest that mental health issues were on the rise before the virus arrived. It is vital that institutions pay more attention and take more responsibility for their part in causing these trends. Research in this area suggests that cultivating caring, affirming and connected communities on college campuses is critical when it comes to mental health. Networks of professors, staff and fellow students who care can become lifelines when college stressors become all consuming. And if colleges affirm student cultures, values and identities, they can boost students’ self-esteem and sense of empowerment, help them feel less isolated and promote a greater sense of belonging. Prioritizing caring, connected and affirming communities helps more students thrive. A curriculum that allows students to simultaneously deepen their connections to their community’s cultural values and their learning environment can help them feel like they belong to both. Research also shows that culturally relevant learning experiences improve academic success. Campuses therefore should provide mental health services that are culturally responsive, via professionals who understand diverse student backgrounds and experiences. Offering counselling services, support groups and outreach programs designed for diverse communities can help students feel understood and supported.- AILET BALLB (Hons.) - 2024
