Final study guide
The Final Exam will be on Tuesday, December 13, 2016 at 8:00 AM .
Scope : You are responsible for everything that we have covered since the second midterm, in both the
readings and class. (To refresh your memory, by the exam date, we will have covered at least Orlando,
Texas Supreme Court, Hochshild, “The Glass Floor,” Bok, Duska, Friedman, Stone, Freeman, Shaw, and
Bonilla-­Silva). There will also be a short section of objective questions 'recycled' from the previous
Midterms.
Materials : You will need to bring a scantron sheet (full-­sized page;; not the narrow kind), a blank blue
book (any size), a #2 pencil, and your favorite writing instrument(s). You will not need your book or any
notes, as this is a closed book and note exam. Do not write in or on your blue book(s) before you come to
class. Do not forget your scantron sheet or your blue book.
Format: The exam will have two (2) sections -­ objective questions and an essay question. The objective
section will be worth 60% of the grade (it will include a few questions from previous exams) and the
essay section worth 40% of the grade.
-­ The objective section will include multiple choice and true false questions. They are meant to
test your philosophical understanding so they will not be simple.
-­ The essay section will consist of one (1) essay. The actual test questions will be drawn from the
study questions below. Two (2) of those questions, drawn at random, will be on the exam and you
will choose one (1) of those two (2) to write on.
