Essentially, you are going to define and describe the feelings associated with who you are and how you’re seen, and write it as a piece of memoir or personal narrative. It is your account. A good narrative should move its reader, so write about something specific that makes you feel something. And if you don’t feel anything, write about that and why it’s significant.

In the epic, Gilgamesh’s struggle is that he is 2/3 god and 1/3 human. He has to go on a journey to discover how to genuinely love someone, his own mortality, and the human condition. Marji’s identity is always changing, as she comes of age in Persepolis. She is often navigating two states of being (Iran and Austria, veil and no veil, public and private, conventional and nonconventional). She questions what is home, how to love, who her friends are, and how she sees herself.

 

The question(s) to answer in this paper are:

Personal Reflection Paper

                  How has your identity been liminal (between two states of being)?

                  How do/did you view yourself?

                  How do/did others view you?

 

at least 2pages 

 

What I’m asking you to do is reflect on identity and answer the questions above. Be as specific as possible. This reflection is about you and your lived experience.

. In 1970, Ford Motors began making the compact model called the Pinto. The model became a focus of a major scandal when it was alleged that the car’s design allowed its fuel tank to be easily damaged in a rear-end collision which sometimes resulted in deadly fires. Critics argued that the vehicle’s lack of a true rear bumper as well as any reinforcing structure between the rear panel and the tank meant that in certain collisions, the tank would be thrust forward into the differential, which had a number of protruding bolts that could puncture the tank. Ford allegedly was aware of this design flaw but refused to pay for a redesign. Instead, it was argued, Ford decided it would be cheaper to pay off possible lawsuits for resulting deaths. Mother Jones magazine obtained the cost-benefit analysis that it said Ford had used to compare the cost of an $11 repair against the monetary value of a human life, in what became known as the Ford Pinto memo. The characterization of Ford’s design decision as gross disregard for human lives in favor of profits led to significant lawsuits. While Ford was acquitted of criminal charges, it lost several million dollars and gained a reputation for manufacturing “the barbecue that seats four.” Was Ford’s reasoning in refusing to pay for a redesign an example of utilitarianism? Explain why or why not.

((  Bentham, Sidgwick, Smart, Dostoevsky, Rawls, Williams ))

1. In 1970, Ford Motors began making the compact model called the Pinto. The model became a focus of a major scandal when it was alleged that the car’s design allowed its fuel tank to be easily damaged in a rear-end collision which sometimes resulted in deadly fires. Critics argued that the vehicle’s lack of a true rear bumper as well as any reinforcing structure between the rear panel and the tank meant that in certain collisions, the tank would be thrust forward into the differential, which had a number of protruding bolts that could puncture the tank. Ford allegedly was aware of this design flaw but refused to pay for a redesign. Instead, it was argued, Ford decided it would be cheaper to pay off possible lawsuits for resulting deaths. Mother Jones magazine obtained the cost-benefit analysis that it said Ford had used to compare the cost of an $11 repair against the monetary value of a human life, in what became known as the Ford Pinto memo. The characterization of Ford’s design decision as gross disregard for human lives in favor of profits led to significant lawsuits. While Ford was acquitted of criminal charges, it lost several million dollars and gained a reputation for manufacturing “the barbecue that seats four.” Was Ford’s reasoning in refusing to pay for a redesign an example of utilitarianism? Explain why or why not.

2. Here are three important moral factors that utilitarians have been accused of ignoring: intentions, character, individual rights. Pick one of these factors that you think you could be defended on utilitarian grounds—does it always maximize happiness, for example, to have good intentions?—sketch what the criticism might be, and give your short defense of utilitarian thinking.

 It must be done in 2 hours.

 

Thank you

STUDENT 1 (100 WORDS OR MORE)

 

Hello Classmates and Professor Terrill,

The two agencies and organization that I have chosen that are located in my state Missouri that are available to children with special needs are Missouri Assistive Technology, Missouri Commission for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing and Missouri Parents Act(MPACT). According to their website Missouri Assistive Technology’s goal is to “increase the access to assissitive technology to all Missourians with all types of disabilities and ages”.  They were established in 1993 and they are directed by the Missouri Assistive Technology Council. They advocate for polices and regulations in order to better serve  the community of those who have disabilities and are in need of assistive technology. The Council meets four times a year and reports directly to the Governor in order to remain efficient and effective for their patrons. This agency would be especially helpful to me as a resource for my classroom and for parents who need assistive technology in their home as well. They may be able to provide financial assistance or allocate other agencies that may be able to help parents to pay for equipment that they need for their children at home or in the classroom.

The Missouri Commission for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing also advocates for policies and programs for those who have this disability. According to their site they work diligently to provide services by working with state agencies, service providers, businesses, organizations as well as individuals who are deaf and hard of hearing. Their goal is to improve the lives of all whom having hearing loss. They were established in 1988 by the Missouri State Legislature however their office was opened in July of 1990. Again this agency would also be an asset to me in the classroom. If there were any discrepancies that I encountered in regards to receiving assistance for a student I could go to their website to research for verification of what my students were indeed entitled to. I could also refer my families to them based upon their needs.

MPACT also known as Missouri Parent Act is an organization that provides assistance to parents of children with special needs in the form of training and information they have a statewide information center where parents can come to them to obtain training and information that they need. According to their site they strongly believe that all children with disabilities have the right to have received an education that “will allow them to achieve their personal goals”.  Their organization is one based on empowerment because they enable parents to advocate for their children by providing knowledge to them in regards to their rights and policy, programs and regulations. They too like the Missouri Commission for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing as well as Missouri Assistive Technology work cohesively with other agencies and organizations as well as individual in a collaborative effort to improve the lives of children with disabilities.  For all the reasons that I have given above this organization would also be an asset to me. As we all know it is imperative that  parents are proactive in their child’s education. This organization is a great aid in encouraging parents to do so.
