Peer Daily Briefing (PWB)
This is a modification of the U.S. "President's Daily Briefing" (PDF) that the president of the United States receives each day. For our purposes it is to gather and share observations based on weekly globally security events that may reflect terrorist actions and Homeland Security policies of the U.S. It can also provide ideas for your Final Paper. For a little history see

Deliver a one page weekly assessment of three (3) world events using national and international news sources (The Economist, BBC, Daily Beast, etc.).
Your focus is to be based on your any of the stated topics in this syllabus and "COURSE OUTCOMES". Your work may also be used for future (TBD) discussion
1. Cite your three (3) news sources and provide a synopsis (100 word minimum, double space),
2. Take one of the articles and write an analysis of your perception of the situation (use "Analysis" as your heading after you initial description of the article). Along with your "COURSE COUTCOMES, think of issues such as: Does it threaten U.S. interests, allies?
Is this a terrorist concern relevant to the region?
What is the article not telling you? Who's job in Washington does it affect - State Department, Pentagon, the Justice Department, etc.?
There is no right answer as much as there is "did you engage the assignment beyond the obvious and superficial news headlines".
