Assignment 3: Exploring Virtue on the College Campus – Case Study

 

Case Study:

 

A young man meets a wonderful girl in his senior year in college. He believes this is the one that he might marry in the future. He is deeply in love with her. He has a problem. After leaving the constraints of parental authority at home, he went wild as a party animal at college. He was very sexually active in his freshman and sophomore years at college. During that time, he caught genital herpes. (Hint:  Think about the following:  Were these acts virtuous and honest? To whom? Is the individual responsible for his actions?)

 

His sister goes to the same college and is friends with her brother’s girlfriend as well as being close to her brother. She knows he has genital herpes. She does not want to hurt him or the relationship but she wonders if she should tell her brother’s girlfriend about her brother’s condition. (Hint: Think about the following: What would be the virtuous and honest thing to do in your own mind? Does the sister have a different relationship and/or responsibility to the girlfriend than the brother? What is the overlap of these relationships? What is the responsibility of the sister to each? What consequences might be expected? Are vices of lack and vices of excess evident?)

 

Answer the following four questions in your assignment response. Please read all four questions before beginning. After you have finished answering the four questions, read the new development and answer question 5.

 Discuss the following case in terms of virtue, non-malfeasance, and honesty. Can you identify examples of each (or their opposites) in the case study as written? Where and by whom? Explain your answers. Please do not get emotionally or personally involved with “finger pointing.” Stay focused on virtue, non-malfeasance, and honesty.  How should each person in the case (brother and sister) handle his or her situation moving forward? Explain how non-malfeasance and virtue come into play. For example, what should the sister do and why? The brother? The girlfriend? In your answer, discuss the concepts of “no harm” and “honesty.” In your opinion, can virtues or moral values conflict with each other? Do non-malfeasance and honesty conflict? Whether you answer yes or no, explain your answer. How can the concepts of “excellence” and the “golden mean” be applied to this case? What might it look like for each person in the case to act according to the golden mean? In your answer, discuss the relationship between excellence and the golden mean.

 

New Development: The sister learns that her brother has decided not to tell his girlfriend until much later if they become serious and he has an outbreak. He also asks his sister to promise to keep his secret. ( Hint: Think about what the sister should do now. How do virtue, non-malfeasance, and honesty come into play?)

 

5.  Considering your answers in questions 1 – 4 above, consider how the “new development” might change your answers. What should the sister do now?

 

Remember : address the questions from the position of virtue, non-malfeasance, and honesty, not from an emotional response.

 

Submit your response to the questions in Part I and II in a cohesive 2–3-page (500–750-word) Microsoft Word document to the M1: Assignment 3 Drop box by Wednesday, September 14, 2016.

 

All written assignments and responses should follow rules for attributing sources. Be sure to use Microsoft Word spelling/grammar check before submitting your work.

Rubric: Grading Rubric for Discussion Boards

Discussion Boards are a major part of the course as well as a big part of your overall grade in the course. Interaction is the key to learning! For this course, interaction is based on discussion board posts.

• Each student must post their own response to the discussion board question (called an original thread) along with posting a response to at least two other student postings (called a peer response).
• When you respond to a peer posting, you don’t always have to agree with them. Use your critical thinking skills and analyze their response, give more details or challenge their assumptions. Being a good student means using critical thinking!
• You will want to create discussion board assignments that are meaningful and interesting to you personally and to your colleagues in the class.

Textbook References: Clear references to the textbook are required in both the original thread post and both peer responses for all course DBs.

• Textbook references should come from the chapter(s) specified in the assignment prompt and be clearly connected to your post and the assignment topic.
• Be sure and include the chapter and page number from the textbook in your posts, for example (chapter 2, 59), just as you would do for any research paper/post!

DBs: You can earn a total of 15 points per discussion board: 10 points maximum for your original thread posting and 5 points maximum for your response to 2 or more other student’s postings:

• Original posts should be at least 500-600 words total and have a least 1 textbook reference from each specified chapter. You will have 2 references per original DB post.
• Each of the two peer responses should be at least 150 words each in length and have a least 1 textbook reference from the specified chapter. You will have a textbook reference in each of your peer response posts.

BEFORE YOU POST, READ THE INFORMATION REGARDING “GRADING DB’s” (word count, textbook references, etc). Participants must create a thread in order to view other threads in this forum.

• • • • • • Your post should include both chapters. Do not post chapters separately!
          • Check grammar and spelling before you post.
          • You cannot edit or delete your post after you submit it.
          • Do not attach your assignment to the thread.
          • Do not post a response to your original post with additional information or materials.
          • Do not put DB questions into your post!
