Field Trip Bonus

Thank you all for your good behavior and attention on today's field trip.

If anyone would like to turn in a paragraph on their reactions to the film, I will give bonus points.

Sample paragraph topics might be:

Is saying "I'm sorry" enough?

What is the difference between a bystander and an oppressor?

Is it better to leave a bad situation or stay and try to fix it?

Was Dr. Bloch's guilt justified?

Thank you all again.
