For example, during theGreat Lakes Storm of 1913, at least 19 ships sank, killing 248 aboard.7 In the 1970’s, perhaps themost mysterious of Great Lakes shipwrecks occurred, the wreck of the S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald.When the Edmund Fitzgerald set out for Zug Island on November 9, 1975 there was a galewarning issued by the National Weather Service. Winds were reported at speeds greater than 50knots, and waves were estimated to be over 10 feet high.8 The Fitzgerald continued to move outinto the storm, which proved deadly. They were out of sight and off the radar in just minutes.The members of the ship did not send

. Page 11.142.2Introduction to Virtue EthicsVirtue ethics is not a new concept. Most people regard it as something that was initiallydeveloped (as far as the Western world is concerned) by Aristotle more than 2300 years ago.Many ethical approaches concentrate on how to make good decisions when faced with difficultsituations. Aristotle’s approach was to emphasize virtuous living. A good person will makegood decisions, so what is important is to become a good person. In the 1200’s ThomasAquinas integrated this philosophy with a Christian perspective on the world. Aquinas’perspective was to dominate Western philosophical thinking for hundreds of years. For much ofthe 20th century virtue ethics was not commonly taught as a viable option by most

are drawbacks inthis model too. Students often seek advice from the local faculty, and communicate it to theirteam members. This may lead to conflicting views as described earlier, although the chances ofsuch occurrence are low. More importantly, although the instructors grade GPD projects andteams jointly, the “local” instructor determines the final grade for each student at his/herinstitution. The instructor has a much deeper knowledge about the teams and the project works/he has supervised. It is difficult for the “local” instructor to understand the subtle decisionsmade by a team s/he did not supervise. Currently, the “local” instructor follows the progress ofhis “local” students independent of their teams by interacting frequently with
