In a two page paper, respond to the following:

Professor’s suggested outline.
- Start by explaining the situation. What are the problems? Who is involved?
- Next, describe what options exist. Use the ethical decision making process. I have provided a resource http://www.scu.edu/ethics/practicing/decision/making.pdf
- Once you have described your options you will choose. There is no right or wrong answer here, but make sure that you justify your choice.
- Conclude with what you believe will be the outcome as a result of your choice.
