It is also highly recommended that you have read LaFollette’s “Writing a Philosophy Paper”
from Ethics in Practice: An Anthology. This paper is worth 5% of your grade in this course. Make sure
to follow the following instructions.
Topic
In this paper, you will begin to defend your own view on your applied ethics topic. To do this, you
must briefly explain your applied ethics topic and then write a clear thesis statement that states your
own view. After giving your thesis statement, you need to explain why you have this position. So,
explain two or three reasons that you think support your view.
