Criminal Justice Final Exam
[OOC: Sorry for the delay. Today has been wacky. Standard procedure, though. Get it done by the weekend if possible, Tuesday at the latest. Class Info Link.]
*The Tick is at his desk. In front of him are the exams. Lockheed is on his normal shelf and is waving what appears to be the answer key. More than likely, he's just being a bit of a jerk.*
"Well, class, it's been an interesting semester. My goal was to make this class a Treasure Map of Knowledge. I've tried to give you a Path to Learning Something, but hopefully I also managed to encourage you to use your own Metal Detectors of Pondering so you could find your own path to your own treasure."
"I hope that you will all walk away from here today rich with Gold Doubloons of Understanding. And I also hope that all of you will join me next semester in Advanced Criminal Justice, where we'll be dealing with more advanced maps, more advanced treasure, and more advanced metaphors."
"I will be here during class time next week if you would like to stop by and talk, or even just study for your other exams in a different place than usual. Your semester grades should be posted in this room some time next week as well."
Tick passed out the tests and sat back down as he said, "Good luck on your exams!"
1) Summarize what you learned about forgiveness and its place in the judicial/penal system.
2) Explain how a being who survives repeated murder attempts could be considered a worse criminal than the attempted murderer.
3) While we all love Justice, like with every spoon we sometimes spill some of the soup. So is it best to sometimes let a guilty carrot escape or is it better to get spill free spoons where an innocent piece of leek gets eaten?
4) Give a detailed understanding of the idea of redemption, and what society can do to ensure that Justice is served in the cases of reformed/reforming criminals.
5) List three things you learned about Justice fromthat book that we don't know the name of or exactly what it's about or who the author is.
6) ESSAY: Create a metaphor involving Justice and ducklings. Keep it between 25-75 words.
Extra Credit -
A) Make up a sentence that has to do with Justice using only words beginning with the letters of your name. Only one word per letter in your name, and each letter can only be used once. They can be arranged in any order as long as they form a complete sentence. (For example, the words in a sentence for Rory could be arranged "Y R G M R L R I O E.") Bonus points if you only use your first name.
B) After taking this class for this long, you should know how to summarize your feelings about Justice and how you feel about those who try to evade it in a brief word or phrase. Go ahead. Give your battlecry!

Re: Exams
2. If they try to get revenge, or maliciously try to turn the tables upon their attacker. Also, if they could easily evade the anvil trap and instead toss it on the coyote's head, that would be mean, wrong, and probably a perversion of Justice.
3. I'd rather let a guilty carrot escape and spoon it up later. Why should the innocent leek be punished for something that's not its fault? Is there a Spill Free Spoon Of Justice? I'd think you'd chance that turning into Tableware of Totalitarianism.
Janet resists the urge to cross that answer out and write something more sensible.
4. Redemption is something personal to the criminal. The idea of redemption from outside is nice, but the real work has to be done by the criminal himself. The criminal should feel regret, guilt, or sorrow about his misdeeds and attempt to atone for them in some sort of personally meaningful way. If that happens, there's a strong possibility that the redemption can be earned and the criminal will be genuinely reformed.
What can society do? Allow the criminal the attempt to reform. Try not to cut him or her off from society. Feelings of alienation could allow more negative emotions to arise and therefore they would possibly cause the criminal to either consciously or unconsciously sabotage his attempt to reform.
5. Janet was fairly sure she
was in Las Vegas during that classhad the flu when they readthat bookand she only had vague memories of it.So she wrote out
that point about Justice and the thing in the placethat she was pretty sure she remembered correctly, then added a second item aboutold ideas of Justice compared to new onesand also, because she was completely clueless, added something fromthe author's biographyon the dustjacket and how he could really dig the Justice system because ofthat one thing in his life.6. If you show a duckling Justice and it's the first thing it sees, it imprints upon Justice immediately. Then you have a bunch of baby ducklings quacking and trailing after Justice, trying to imitate it. Justice is a good duckling parental figure.
Janet apparently can't write a metaphor to save her life today. That should have been much snappier.
A) Justice absolutely needs everything trustworthy.
B) You'd better do exactly what I tell you, or I will sedate you, and you will suffer worse than if you just came along with me now.
Janet thinks that she's fairly sure this isn't exactly the nicest battlecry. On the other hand, she's fairly sure that any of her former patients could testify to the truth of that statement. Not that they would. Not if they knew what was good for them.
