Abstract
The efforts to control the COVID-19 pandemic present a living case that is unfortunate but well-suited for addressing the global professional practice and social responsibility domains of IT2017. It provides an ideal assignment for discussion, and as an open-ended case study, lends itself well to that discussion taking place in a multiweek, asynchronous online mode, should that be necessary.
