Essay Instructions: Additonal ifo: use traditional academic structure emphasizing thesis, paragraph structure, introduction and conclusion.

Have a central claim or thesis that represents the question that you pose. (Do bartenders have a moral responsibility for the behavior of their patrons?--I would like the paper to favor the claim that they do. it is not a compare/contrast paper, though the "other side" can be represented, but not extensively.)

at least 6 citable sources. 3 sources must be non-internet sources.

sources should be cited using MLA format.

And lastly, thank you so much for your time and hardwork. I appreciate it immensely.

Essay Instructions: PLEASE READ: Lauren Slater’s “In the Unlikely Event of a Water Landing” from the book Opening Skinner’s Box, and Roger M. Boisjoly, “The Challenger Disaster: Moral Responsibility and the Working Engineer”

THEN SYNTHESIZE YOUR ANALYTICAL RESPONSE TO THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:

1.How are Slater’s and Boisjoly’s essays relevant to understanding ethics? Be specific.

2.(a). Read through the Online Ethics site to become familiar with the greater professional discussion (first link below).
(b). Then look over the National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) “Code of Ethics for Engineers.” (second link below).
(c). For the final step, go online and look up the professional code of ethics specifically for chemical engineers. What do you see as the advantages and drawbacks to such a code? Are there any surprises in the Rules of Practice or Professional Obligations or other sections of the code?

3.What are some of the common roadblocks to behaving ethically as an engineer? What can you do to overcome them?

This is a synthesis response and mirrors the type of complex writing engineers do by scaffolding the information into a cohesive document. That means that your answer to question one builds the groundwork for question two. You are able to make an educated position statement by the time you get to the more significant qualitative reasoning in the final question. In other words, you cannot answer question three without taking the steps of synthesizing the readings and the research on professional engineering ethics codes. Avoid gender specific language (use “human” instead of “man” and “he or she” instead of “he”).

This essay is an argumentative essay. The complete instructions from my professor state: "Your paper should be focused upon developing an argument for or against. you should not spend a lot of time retelling th position of the athors discussed in your text book or in class. You will not be grded upon the position that you select, but the quality of the argument that you put forward." The subject of my argumentative essay is "D'Holbach in his essay "We Are Completely Determined" argues that without the notion of Freewill the tradistional principles of just punishment and moral rsponsiblity become irrelevant. What is your position on human freewill and how does it effect moral responsiblity?" I want this argumentative paper to prove that free will does exists. It needs to also point out how that effects moral responsibility.

I will include the essay from our texbook via email. I also need other sources to prove the argument, but cannot use several because they are listed in our textbook. The professor wants to see that we researched outside of our textbook. The ones that cannot be used as resources include:
- Wiliam James: The Delemma of Determinism
- Corliss lamont: Fredom of the Will and Human Responsibility
- W. T. Stace: Compatibilism
- Hary Frankfurt: Freedome of the Will and the Concept of a Person
- Richard Taylor: Fate

**I would really like to see something by Ayn Rand as a resource if possible.


I would like 4 additional resources cited besides the textbook, for a total of 5.

The instructions say that I should provide as much information as possible, so I want to add the following:
- The essay should be a well developed argument for free will.
- I need 3 clearly stated arguments to support the existence of free will and one must include the efect on moral responsiblity (or the absence of if there was no free will?).
- The essay must be persuasive and clearly state my thoughts and opinions with hard evidence to back them.
- This essay must also display the oposition and opposing opinions without demeaning my thesis and opinion.
- Please provide a works cited page in MLA format and copies of your sources.

Just to make sure that I'm saying everything...
