Part 1:Read and respond to Chapter 16.5 Exercise 1.
Rainbow Airlines, a new air carrier headquartered in Chicago with routes from Rome to
Canberra, extensively studied the psychology of passengers and determined that more than
93 percent of its passengers felt most comfortable with female flight attendants between the
ages of twenty-one and thirty-four. To increase its profitability, the company issued a policy
of hiring only such people for jobs in the air but opened all ground jobs to anyone who could

flight attendants hired were black. What violations of federal law has Rainbow committed, if
any?
