August 27, 2012: Writing Assignment - Constructing Thesis Statements

Purpose: I can construct a concise thesis statement that clearly address the prompt and the idea of power of authority and how it relates to responsibility. 

For the past two weeks, we have been reading about the atrocities carried out by Nazi officers, the willingness to “shock” an innocent as carried out by Milgram’s experiment and the choices and responsibility carried by Kevin Carter and colonel Tibbets.  Each person possessed a power and technically had a choice, thus each person could be considered somewhat responsible. 

How does the power of one’s authority affect their choices and how responsible they feel for their actions?
