Pick EITHER question 1 OR 2: Only answer ONE question
When you pick which question to work on, use the sources listed for that question ONLY. No outside sources. When writing the paper, have an argument and counter argument structure. I will attach a sample paper example.
Question #1:
Recently, an individual made an anonymous donation of $7 million to Edgewood College, a small liberal arts college in Wisconsin.1 (I have attached a pdf of the article.) How would a psychological egoist argue that this act, by the donor, was purely self-interested? Is the psychological egoist correct, or incorrect? Defend your answer carefully and in detail.

OR
Question #2:
Consider some of the potentially controversial practices regarding animals: • Use for food and clothing • Factory farming • Cosmetics testing • Medical testing and experimentation • Animals engaging in dangerous or difficult work (draft animals, military or police animals, etc.)
Discuss whether some or all of these practices are wrong, given the moral consideration that is due to animals. Among the questions you might want to consider in addressing this topic (though this list should not be considered exhaustive): • What kind of moral consideration do animals deserve? • What is it that confers moral status? (Or do you agree with Rachels that “moral status” is not a useful philosophical concept?) • Do some highly-intelligent animals deserve greater moral consideration than non-sentient or low-functioning humans (for example, humans in a persistent vegetative state)? • How do we weigh human vs. animal interests, when the two conflict?
