Pick an ethical issue either from a current event in the news or website, or you can choose any item from your textbook. If you choose an item from the textbook please just let me know the page number.

Analyze the issue. What is the issue? What is the conflict? What is the dilemma? Analyze this ethical issue using the four ethical theories. What are the strengths? What are the weaknesses? What theory would you choose? If there was a resolution, do you feel it was correct? If not, what do you think should be done if this is an ongoing issue? Trust vs. Loyalty? Is truth best or loyalty? Which one is this? Is this short term or long term? Is this a short term or long term issue? Is this case of dispensing justice or dispensing mercy? Does the decision made affect an individual or a community?

Remember that for your Oral Presentation you must speak for at least 10 minutes.
