Camelot Simulation Role Paper
Order Description
For this assignment each student in the class will be assigned a role in the Camelot simulation. To
ensure that you understand your role and the positions that your role will take during the
simulation, you must write a character profile. Please refer to pages 174 – 194 in the Camelot text
book for a brief role description of your assigned character. There is also information regarding
the setting and list of duties for characters that will assist you.
This paper should consist of a short summary of your character’s biography and your character’s
positions on issues. The issues that will be addressed during the simulation include:
1. Resolution of Sympathy for the family of Officer Murphy
2. Resolution concerning “Fairness in Housing & Employment”
3. Officer Protection Issue
4. Beauty Salon Zoning Variance Issue
5. Downtown Hotel Plaza Issue
6. Strip Mall Development Issue
7. Smoking Ban issue
8. Home for Unwed Mother’s Issue
9. Topless Bar & Grill Issue
10. Massage Parlor Issue
Additionally, you should identify your character’s allies and potential coalition members, as well
as potential adversaries in the simulation and discuss your strategy for dealing with these other
characters. I expect most papers will be approximately two (2) pages long, double – spaced. Margins
must not exceed one inch and the font must be 11 or 12 point Times New Roman.
This paper is not a research paper, accordingly you do not need to complete research outside of the
course text books and readings. However, your comprehension of information covered to this point in
the course should be evident by your analysis of the character, their interaction with others, and
what impact this and other individuals can have on the processes and decision making within the
city government of Camelot.
