. The NPR interviewer asks where we draw the line between appropriate and inappropriate behavior. How can we make that distinction be clear and unambiguous? What do you think? Write an essay in which you address that question, using some or all of these additional questions to help you focus your thinking Where is the line for you? Are you always certain, even in the moment, that a particular behavior—either yours or somebody else’s—is acceptable? How can we take into consideration power and status differentials in determining what is appropriate? You might want to use an extended example in your essay: Create a scenario with variations—one appropriate and one inappropriate. Explain the differences between the variations. Your position essay should contain the following features: An explicit position A response to what others have said or done Appropriate background information A clear indication of why the topic matters Good reasons and evidence Attention to more than one point of view An authoritative tone An appeal to readers’ values
