For our final assignment, choose a current bioethical current event or limited resource issue that is of interest to you.  I will list a few suggestions.  Feel free to use one of them, or explore another topic on your own. This will be in a written format, but will also be discussed in small groups in class. As you write your essay,  present different sides/theories/opinions as well as your own. Think critically about the implications to the various choices.
