12. Tenth Grade Program: Career Program Survey Results

13. Who would you save?  The following seven children are currently on our hospital’s liver transplant waiting list. All seven are in equally serious condition. There is little doubt that those who do not get the transplants will die. We have just been notified that two suitable livers will be available tomorrow morning. Please select TWO PERSONS from the waiting list who will receive those transplants. Per hospital policy, this committee decision must be unanimous.

14. DAVID is 7, white, and has lived in an orphanage for the past two years. His father died of alcoholism and his mother has constant bouts with mental illness, which affects David’s current living arrangements. STANLEY is 10 years old, white, and has been in five different elementary schools throughout his elementary school experience. His teachers all speak of him as a quiet, good boy and an average student. He and his mother are very close. TOM is 18, white, and in his senior year of high school. His physician has required him to take six months off of school for a nervous breakdown. His parents regard him as quite odd since he makes up his own religion and chants hymns to himself. He is not doing well in school and has few friends. JOHN is 13, black and lives in a state institution for delinquent boys. He was placed there by the courts as punishment for indiscriminately firing a revolver from the front steps of his home. Neither parent seems to care what happens to John. MARTHA is 5, white, and completely deaf and blind. She has not learned how to communicate her thoughts in any manner at all and is “out of control” most of the time. GEORGE is 15, white, and is being home schooled by his mother since being diagnosed as mentally ill by one of his teachers. However, his mother seems to really believe in him and angrily denies that he is incompetent at all. DEAN is 15 years old, black, and appears to be quite gifted. He has skipped school three grades since beginning school and is ready to begin college next year. His family is very close and parents appear very devoted to each other.
