For each Unit, students will write 2-5 pages that define, and explain the significance of 2-3 key terms, concepts or claims from that Unit’s readings. The aim of the assignments is for students to demonstrate that they have done the research and thinking needed to understand the terms or concepts used in the readings, and can explain them in their own words. TAs will be looking to see that you clearly understand the terms/concepts – not just superficially, but that you have a depth of understanding that allows you to use the terms/concepts effectively and appropriately. Assignments do not need to be written in essay format, but they do need to be written in full sentences and/or paragraph form, with proper spelling, grammar and citations used.

For the Week 4 Critical Thinking Exercise, you will review the actual cases of Rockstad v. Global Finance & Investment Co., 41 P.3d 583 (Alaska 2002) and Wessells v. State of Alaska, Department of Highways, 562 P.2d 1042 (Alaska 1977). You can review the case by clicking both of the following links: https://law.justia.com/cases/alaska/supreme-court/2002/s-9579-1.html and https://law.justia.com/cases/alaska/supreme-court/1977/2834-1.html
Generally, a tenant must pay the rent even if he or she refuses to occupy the property or moves out, as long as the refusal or the move is unjustifiable and the lease is in force. In these cases, the Alaska Supreme Court interpreted rent-payment default and notice provisions in a commercial lease. After reading the case, you will respond with answers to the following questions using your critical thinking and moral reasoning skills:
Explain how the legal principles expressed in the Wessells case apply to the facts and issues of the Rockstad case.
Identify the basis for the disagreement between the majority and the dissent in the Rockstad case.
What are the conclusions and supporting arguments for each position?
Describe how the holding, in this case, is of interest to landlords who want their tenants to make timely payments of rent.
In a case such as Rockstad, should the relative size of the business affect a court’s interpretation of a lease’s terms? Why or why not?
Your response to the exercise questions should be a minimum of 150 words. Going over the minimum word length requirement is acceptable; however, I am not looking for 1000+ words! It is suggested that you use MS Word or another word processing application that can check spelling/grammar and can show the word count.
You are expected to properly cite (http://gmcga.libguides.com/c.php?g=458&p=1686) and incorporate scholarly/peer-reviewed sources (http://gmcga.libguides.com/periodicals) in your Critical Thinking Exercise topic/posts.
Be as thorough as possible when writing your Critical Thinking Exercise topic/posts, and remember, this is an academic assignment, so no “text-talk,” no conversational tone, and ABOVE ALL OTHER THINGS… don’t plagiarize!! Lastly, spell-check and proofread your work! Failure to follow these steps will negatively impact your grade.

Critical Thinking in Prejudice and Prejudgment This is a critical Thinking assignment and I will post the instructions to the assignment.
Critical Thinking in Prejudice and Prejudgment Assignment 2
Please read the passage below. Write a very short essay (1 page, 12-point font, single or double spaced, normal margins, no cover page) in which you evaluate the argument(s) contained in the passage below.
Critical Thinking in Prejudice and Prejudgment
Your response should do two things. First, clearly, state the argument made by the author of the passage. Once you have isolated the argument from any extraneous material, analyze the argument into the premises, sub-conclusions (if any) and conclusion. I would prefer you to do this in point form, simply listing the premises, sub-conclusions (if any) and conclusion. Be sure to make a very clear statement of each point. (So, for example, do not use the word ‘I’ to refer to anyone but yourself.) Second, evaluate the quality of the argument, giving reasons to justify your evaluation.
Write out your evaluation in the form of a very, very short essay: a long paragraph or two should do nicely. For purposes of evaluation, assume the speaker is Brandon Bean, a member of this section of Critical Thinking, and assume that his audience is you, the class as a whole.
Prejudice and Pre-judgement
Brandon Bean
Prejudice is always bad. That much is clear. But it is also misunderstood. As many people know, the word ‘prejudice’ comes from ‘pre-judgement’. The idea is that the prejudiced person is the one who makes a prior negative judgment about some people without knowing whether or not those people really deserve that judgment. Most people assume that pre-judgment is automatically prejudiced: that it is automatically bad. But they are wrong.
Imagine you are asked for spare change by a man who appears drunk, and who sounds a bit aggressive. You can see and hear that he is a member of certain groups (beggars, drunks, men, people who take an aggressive tone of voice). You will automatically form a belief about how likely it is that this person will take a hostile action towards you. Will you judge this person the same as a sober, polite-sounding teenaged girl who asks for a quarter to make a phone call? No. You will judge the beggar as more dangerous. You will make a negative judgment about him based on the groups he belongs to. But is this wrong? No.
Why is it not wrong to make this negative judgment? This is a complicated question, that I cannot answer perfectly. However, it seems to me that part of the answer is this: this negative judgment is statistically accurate. It is more common for drunken male beggars to threaten or commit assault on strangers than it is for sober teenaged girls. And a rational estimate of risk cannot be improper. It would be wrong to continue to treat the man as more dangerous than the girl if one learned more about the two that showed otherwise – if one learned that the man had never committed assault, but that the girl was just recently released from prison after an armed robbery, say. But this does nothing to show that reasonable beliefs about people are themselves bad. Negative judgments are ok after all.
Note: You may wish to consult your fellow students, parents, or friends about your assignment. I encourage you to do so. However (and this is crucial), any help you get must be acknowledged. If your mom reads your assignment over to check your grammar, include a footnote or endnote thanking her for this service. If you discuss the general ideas you have with a friend, write “Thanks to Lisa Kudrow for a helpful discussion” or something of the sort. If you borrow a specific idea from someone, put in a footnote saying “I got this idea from Mark Improvement” or whoever. Also important: although I’m all in favor of talking about philosophy assignments with others, you are not permitted to actually write together, or to write up shared outlines, or to share written work with one another. Be sensible here: don’t give a photocopy of your essay to someone else who “just wants to get an idea” for his own paper. Conversation is good for thought; shared written work is (in this course) plagiarism.
Coming from a Small City In India, my Aspirations are Massive. I would love to use every opportunity possible to learn and socialize for my personal growth and my economic growth. I always felt that U.S is the land of opportunity but after arriving here, I couldn’t figure out how, Until Now! UChicago provides the essence which I was looking for in my College Life, the ability to do and learn whatever I want with the support of the college. My Love for UChicago actually started when I received a Letter from Professor _____________ of Harvard University. I love going for talks related and unrelated to my field, I’m pretty nerdy that way. I always used to send letters to these professors, engage in conversation in an attempt to receive access to their research, but we all know how it ends, and after receiving that letter from Harvard, it made me realize. I have to move to another university for my personal growth, and among the colleges I researched about my top choice is UChicago. I’m a very inquisitive person and I love discoursing with faculty members, and chatting with professors on how they became who they are both Academically and Professionally and I would love to do the same over there which I guarantee will enable me to have thought provoking abilities, an necessity to be the best in any field. If gained admission, one of the first professors I would love to have these “conversation street” chats is with Professor Raghuram Rajan.
I embrace Challenges, be it mental or physical and the unique “Core” Curriculum of Uchicago which my peers find challenging to understand, has only put me more into the quirkiness this college only possess. I want to challenge myself and find out my extreme, and try to break it and reach the next extreme, a possibility I feel which will be a reality if accepted here. Boys would love to be successful, but men loves to change history , and I would like to be that man.
Last Month, I was invited by the Economics Club here At Indiana University to participate for the UChicago’s Oeconomica Econometrics Game, but due to unforeseen circumstances the plan was cancelled. I wasn’t discouraged, infact it poured kerosene on the burning fire within me to enter into your prestigious university and be the nerdiest among the nerds in the University. All in all I am Proud To Be A Nerd and likewise will be proud to call UChicago my Alma-Mater.
How does the University of Chicago, as you know it now, satisfy your desire for a particular kind of learning, community, and future? Please address with some specificity your own wishes and how they relate to UChicago?
Despite growing up in a small town in India, I have always had big dreams and massive aspirations. I believe in taking up chances, finding solutions, and bettering society. Consequently, I feel that education is the key to growth both at a personal level and the world level. Throughout my life, I always have strived to work hard in School and achieve high GPAs in a bid to excel and improve the quality of my life as well as the community around me. Furthermore, I am a goal oriented individual, who has always believed that the USA is the land of opportunities. Hence, I have always socialized with various intellectuals in the USA via emails, as I tried to engage them on the various research they are conducting to increase my knowledge. It was through these letters that I learned of UChicago when Professor ________ of Harvard University gave me an insight into the institution. I made it my goal to work hard, move to the USA and pursue my studies in the institution.
First, I felt that the Professors here are very engaging and friendly. Additionally, they are very professional, and knowledgeable which makes it an ideal institution for one to learn and increase their knowledge. Accordingly, one is assured of continued support and guidance as they conduct their research. I am an inquisitive individual and love to discourse with the faculty members on both academic and non-academic matters. I believe that this helps build a wholesome individual who is all rounded and able to tackle various problems in the world. Among the professors I am looking forward to meeting if given admission is Professor Raghuram Rajan, who I believe will help me grow in my field.
Additionally, I love challenges and believe that we as humans are tasked with finding solutions. Therefore, I never shy away from the different challenges I am faced with. I believe that in joining the institution, I will have stepped out of my comfort zone and meet similarly minded individuals, some with abilities better than mine, whom we may work to build each other and succeed. Moreover, being an international student, I would love to meet with the various international students within the institution and find their various perspectives and outlook to various phenomena. I believe that diversity creates an ideal environment to help develop individuals and make them better individuals.
Although I missed out an opportunity to participate in UChicago’s Oeconomica Econometrics Games in the previous month, I have always kept my dreams alive and worked hard in my studies to gain admission into the prestigious institution. I am looking forward to joining some of the World’s brightest minds and help solve some of the problems facing society.
Q2) Imagine you’ve struck a deal with the Dean of Admissions himself, Dean Nondorf. It goes as follows: you’re guaranteed admission to the University of Chicago regardless of any circumstances that arise. This bond is grounded on the condition that you’ll obtain a blank, 8.5 x 11 piece of paper, and draw, write, sketch, shade, stencil, paint etc., anything and everything you want on it; your only limitations will be the boundaries of both sides on the single page. Now the catch… your submission, for the rest of your life, will always be the first thing anyone you meet for the first time will see. Whether it’s at a job interview, a blind date, arrival at your first Humanities class, before you even say, “hey,” they’ll already have seen your page, and formulated that first impression. Show us your page. What’s on it, and why? If your piece is largely or exclusively visual, please make sure to share a creator’s accompanying statement of at least 300 words, which we will happily allow to be on its own, separate page.
You read the front page, and now you are like “Why am I seeing this?” Well, my fellow human, you are in luck! As I am going to make your interesting day even more interesting. We are going to play “THE GUESSING GAME.” Sorry Interviewers due to your substantial knowledge about me already you are unable to play, but please be my guest to tag along.
I am your Host, Neil Jolly Malayil and this is a thought-provoking session of who I might be. You may not know me yet, but after this, I am sure to increase your curiosity. But before that, I am pretty sure you would love to know why you are viewing this paper all of a sudden. Well, my friend, I had made a deal with the devil himself, and he’s not your typical devil. (I’m joking he is not a devil, he’s the dean of UChicago) Instead of taking away my soul for admission, our agreement is the paper in front of you. Yup, We all have our ways to Introduce ourselves, and this is mine. Pretty Creepy Right?
Now let’s start the Guessing Game! On Page 1 you see this very odd looking sheet! (The Body Of David Beckham + The Brains of Neil deGrysse Tyson + The Comedy of Kevin Hart ? Me) So why have I done this? Well, you have been staring at this paper for a good minute now, but did you ever think why is there so much Blue in the front page? Is it because I want to get your attention? Is it because I’m very cool as blue on the outside yet black as Kevin Hart’s Tee within? Or maybe it is just my favorite color? Maybe I have the inquisitive like Neil deGrysse Tyson but is cool as a cucumber like David’s looks? Maybe I’m not as expressive in showing my emotions like the photo in the right, or maybe I am? Maybe I love to be unique like how the image on the right is different in every way from the others?
Now you’re starting to get the game, aren’t you? “Haven’t you heard the saying Do Not Judge A Book by its cover.” This is exactly that. Shocking, isn’t it? You may wonder, Wow! is he the next thought-provoking artist such as Banksy, spoiler alert, I’m not. My drawing of the Bird is still the alphabet “ V.”
Too many Questions, Very Fewer Answers but don’t worry, while your mind may have crashed due to the infinite number of possibilities. Answers to all of them are right beside you.
Thanks for Playing! Just take a deep breathe and look up now. ??
