Week #08 — for this reflection, find a story in the news about business and ethics. For example, back in August, Merv Tweed resigned his seat as the Member of Parliament from Brandon-­‐Souris to become the President of railway company Omnitrax Canada. Many people see this as an ethical issue—Mr. Tweed used to chair the parliamentary transportation committee and before that the agricultural committee, thereby putting him in a possible conflict of interest.
Précis (summarize) the story. DO NOT COPY THE STORY word for word or copy/paste the story into your reflection—summarize it. Next, use the ethics frameworks discussed in lecture in LEC 06 to discuss whether or not you feel there is an ethical issue and how it should be resolved. What ethical principles need to be considered? What is the nature of the issues in the story? If you were part of the organization(s) involved, how would you resolve them? Would you do things differently? If so, how so? If not, why not?
As mentioned before in the original ePortfolio document…

Identify Campaign-Urbana social justice responses to “thick injustice.” How are local organizations (on-campus and off-campus) challenging “thick injustice” to make visible the invisible? The responses should highlight local group involvement in institutions (i.e. connection or outcomes from the Champaign County Board, Urbana or Champaign City Councils, planning advisory boards, Student Senate, University of Illinois, etc.); the importance of place (vs. space); and historical context of the issue. In what ways are local groups exercising social justice as a practice?

Please read the poem “These Wintry Sundays” by Robert Hayden and compose a well-written, thesis driven explication of this poem in which you attempt to defend your interpretation of the poem’s meaning.
Your first task for this essay should be to compose a thesis statement that presents clearly to the reader your interpretive stance. However, you should articulate it in the introduction as clearly and specifically as possible.
In the body of the essay, you will use analysis of specific textual passages to support your interpretation. Your analyses can focus on meaning, of course, but they might also be attentive to specific formal choices of the poet, including diction, syntax, rhyme, meter, or stanzaic structure.

Prompt:
1) What does Leonard Shelby believe about how his wife died? What really happened? How do we know? Can we be sure? Can any of the characters in the film be trusted? Explain your answers.
2) What is the Storehouse Theory of Memory? How does the film challenge this theory?
3) One criticism of the Memory Theory of personal identity that is implicit in the film is that people often distort or fabricate their memories. Carefully explain and develop this criticism citing details from the film to illustrate it.
4) Leonard suffers amnesia after an attack on he and his wife in their home. After the attack he retains his long-term memories but cannot form any new memories. Is each instant of Leonard after his brain injury the same person as Leonard before the brain injury? How about the instants themselves? Are they parts of the same person? What would the memory theory say about this? How about the bodily identity theory? What do you think?
5) One of the central themes of the film is self-deception. The other main characters in the film attempt to deceive Lenny but he also deceives himself. We learn about this self-deception at the end of the movie. How does he deceive himself and why? What does the self-deception tell us about the Memory Theory of personal identity?
6) Another implicit criticism of the Memory Theory in Memento can be found in the following quotation from a reviewer of the film. Carefully explain this criticism:
“When comparing the Leonard of the past with the present Leonard stark contrasts can be seen. He went from being a button down, neatly parted insurance investigator, to an unkempt, loosely dressed vigilante. He cannot see through his own lies. Leonard is able to write himself a note knowing it is a lie and read it later believing it as absolute truth. Since he is dependent on his ‘facts’ he writes down, he acts upon these lies without any conflict of conscience.”
7) Leonard says: “We all need mirrors to remind ourselves who we are. I’m no different.” What does this mean? What does this say about how each of us determines his/her identity as a person over time? Is Leonard right?
