Product details

A first year business student has recently received an award from her classmates, one that was intended as a joke, but that had left her feeling embarrassed and angry. Two of her male classmates had created a series of year-end awards to be handed out in fun. She was the recipient of the ''Most Likely to Sleep With Her Boss Award''. When these awards were given out in a class setting, the student felt uncomfortable and embarrassed, but had gone along with it to be a good sport. When she heard that these same ''joke'' awards were to be given out at the year-end banquet in front of faculty members and the entire student body of the school, she asked one of the creator/presenters to leave her out of the ''fun'' this time around. To her horror, her classmate did not honor her request, and she was humiliated in front of her teachers and peers in a very public forum. Supplement cases, products 9B02C008, 9B02C009 and 9B02C010 provide detail of the events leading up to the award presentation and its aftermath. The fourth supplement, product 9B02C011, describes the perpetrators'' viewpoint.
