Ethics Class, Monday, 2-4pm

"Over the course of this term, we've looked a lot at your personal moral stance on things. Today we're going to be looking more generally - on how morals are taught to children, often insidiously.

"A good medium for this is fairy tales. Every culture has them - stories that are told to children, bearing little moral gems to shape and guide. The first thing I want you to do is a select a fairy tale. Don't worry if it's not one I'll know, just pick one you're familiar with."

"And if he was worried about this," John said, nodding at her, "he should totally threaten the doc. Cuz that'll work better. Or, hell, barter."
