3.) My supervisor gave me and my fellow student employees a large project, and he gave us a deadline to complete it. We decided to split the work among ourselves. One student in the group is not cooperating and is not making any progress on her part of the project. How should the rest of the group handle this situation?

3. We should confront her as a group and threaten her if she continues to refuse to do her part.
4. We should all follow her lead and give up on the project. If it were really than important, he would not have assigned it to student employees.
