How can we go about doing this without giving up either assignment but also without over-booking ourselves? Clearly describe what you expect from the students: A.Describe a plan of action that will satisfy everyone. B.Brainstorm ideas of how both assignments can be covered.

Did the students come up with ways to reschedule such as: 1. Chang times with one client 2. Policy of 1st come/1st served. 3. Refer job out to others companies who interpret for the deaf.
