In-class Assignment 1 (XSU Spring Concert)
You are a member of the X State University (XSU) student body entertainment committee. Your
committee has agreed to sponsor a spring concert. The motive behind this concert is to offer a
safe alternative to Hasta Weekend. Hasta Weekend is a spring event in which students from XSA
rent houseboats and engage in heavy partying. Traditionally, this occurs during the last weekend
in May. Unfortunately, the partying has a long history of getting out of hand, sometimes leading
to fatal accidents. After one such tragedy last spring, your committee wants to offer an
alternative experience for those who are eager to celebrate the change in weather and the
pending end of the school year.
You have just finished a preliminary scope.
