Ethics [Thursday, March 21, 2013, 2nd period]
"Today we are going to discuss the ethics of a situation you will be pushed into throughout your lives--," Anakin said, "--working in a group. whether it's for a grade or for a job, the prevailing theory is that more people working together is a good idea even if inevitably there is always one member who is absolutely dead weight that you will want to kill."
Anakin made a slight face. "All right, the scenario is this: you're in a group with four other people. You have a project due in two weeks on a subject you don't know anything about. One of the members of the group can only meet for a half hour once a week and never checks their email, two of the others spend their time making out instead of working, and the third one works hard but can't spell even a little bit. After you turn in your project, your teacher wants to know how your group worked. Do you tell the truth, knowing it will sink the other people's grades?"

Re: Listen to the lecture [3/21]
Still, he was giving the discussion topic some fair consideration. Because... well, even if he was just here for a couple of years, he supposed it might be relevant somewhere down the road while he was a student on the island.
