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) A being who survives repeated murder attempts might be construed as displaying a willful inclination toward, perhaps, framing other people for his murder, and therefore exacting undeservedly harsh punishment on another human being. This could be considered unduly vengeful and, perhaps, cruel.
3) I imagine that at some point, the guilty carrot will end up stranded at the bottom of the bowl anyhow, will it not?
4) Redemption -- a regaining of one's respectable status in the eyes of his fellows -- should be earned, but perhaps we as a society should be more willing to award it to those who put in the effort to earn it.
5) List three things you learned about Justice from that book that we don't know the name of or exactly what it's about or who the author is.
- Justice should always be capitalized in order to be held in the proper awe and reverence.
- Justice can be exceedingly verbose, and yet at other times stunningly concise.
- Books cannot be used as an absolute reference for every aspect of Justice. Sometimes Justice is best based off of visceral reactions. Books do not have viscera. Though I have not set foot in Special Collections, so I could be mistaken.
6) ESSAY: Create a metaphor involving Justice and ducklings. Keep it between 25-75 words.
Justice, like ducklings, can be surprisingly resilient. Ducklings swimming alongside river boats near the shore, when it seems that they might be overtaken and run over by the boat, either manage to display surprising, elusive speed or handily survive a brief submersion beneath the boat's keel.

A) Even if anticipatory, crimefighting retains honor.
B) The Shiny Brass Telescope of Justice sees you!
