It's probably a good thing that we're taking our final a little earlier--wouldn't want to run too close to the end of the world (according to the Mayans, of course!).
A couple of reminders from last class:
------>Remember to fill out your course evaluations, if you have not already.
------>I am teaching next semester, Environmental Ethics (PHIL 3320), on Monday evenings at 5:30. If any of you are interested and want a heads-up on the texts and other info, please e-mail me.
------>I expect to have your papers graded and to return them to you.
------>Now to the exam:
------>------>We meet at 7:00 sharp and you'll have the full 2-1/2 hours, plus a little, if you need it. The exam will be in essay format. You'll be allowed to use any notes and printed or handwritten materials, including copies of the on-line notes. (Print them out as handouts rather than as slides in order to save paper.) You will not be allowed to use your texts.
------>------>The exam will offer 6 to 8 essay questions. You will choose 3 of these (--I may specify one of the questions that you must do, but not more than that).
------>------>Here are the basic general topics I'm looking at--
------>------>------>A question on Glover's point of view and basic assumptions.
------>------>------>Comparing/contrasting two of the moral schools, or describing one in more depth.
------>------>------>A question about Socrates.
------>------>------>Several case studies to choose from in applying one or more of the moral schools to real-life situations.
------>See you all Wednesday evening. Please e-mail me if you have questions.
