 * I’m looking for a way to assign topics to individual writers, but have the system
   automated so that users can choose their own topics from a list.
    Say I create
   a Members-Only page with an aggregated list of posts I create that have the topic
   and details of the assignment already included. The posts in this list would 
   only show posts created by admin. I want to put a linked button next to each 
   post in the list that allows each writer to change the author to himself/herself.
   Because the list only shows posts by admin, the post would be removed from the
   list.
 * Which function could I use in the link to specify this?
 * Alternatively, if you know of any plugin that does something like this, let me
   know.
 * Thanks in advance,
    Brandon

 * More specifically, the function would need to include the following parameters:
 * 1. Get user
    2. Change author to user 3. Override user roles
