CLASS EXAMINATIONS

1. The Presidential Commission on the "Challenger Disaster" found that the reporting channels for decision making were inadequate. The major problem appears to have been that:
   1. The upper levels did not ask for additional information in their decision making.
   2. The concerns at lower levels were not communicated up the line.
   3. There were too many steps in the reporting channels.
   4. The voting counts at each level were not recorded.
   5. Each level had to have a unanimous decision before passing it upward.

2. (True/False) Roger Boisjoly was awarded for his whistle-blowing efforts during the 1986 Challenger Disaster.
   1. True (but not by his company!)
