You can take this exam alone or as part of a group (please keep group numbers at four or less). If you do this as a group, please turn in one exam with every member's name on it, making sure every member of your group has a copy. When you revise your essay, try to make sure that what you have written demonstrates your knowledge of the texts, lectures, and issues.  Clearly indicate your sources, including class notes, and conversations with fellow students.

If you do the exam as a group, for each and every member of the group who is to receive credit for your exam, please indicate that group member's contribution(s). 

1. How does Aristotle explain the virtue of proper pride? How would this work in a specific context (e.g., interviewing for a job, trying out for a team, auditioning)? What does this suggest about how someone might argue against Aristotle's position?

By or before the due date of Monday, October 20, 2014, please bring your exam to class and email a copy of your exam to me at kagan@lemoyne.edu.
