Moral Dilemma: You see your friend steal money from another friend. What should you do? Answer: I ask the friend who stole the money to give back the money. If he doesn?t, I will tell the other one that his friend stole the money. Hopefully, they don?t fight but if they do I will record the whole thing. So afterwards they will see how stupid the reason was for them to fight for such a little thing. We would all laugh and live happily ever after!

Long Essay How does the representation of the human figure in a work of art express a culture's values? Select two works of art to analyze in your response. Be sure to include one work from beyond the European tradition. Form and content within depictions of the human figure often expresse perceived cultural beliefs. These beliefs and values have often varied between different cultures and time periods. For example, the Greek statue Doryphoros Spear Bearer portrays a warrior and athlete, while the Moche Mochica Portrait was used in burial rites. The Doryphoros Spear Bearer and Mochica Portrait, from completely different cultures and roughly similar periods, exemplify values and beliefs of their respective cultures through the representation of the human form.
