Group 1: HE, Chapters 4 and 5

After going over the Daily Quiz, we discussed McKibben and Blackford's conflicting views on genetic enhancement. An interesting notion was proposed that by engineering, an individual's ability to make a choice would not be taken away, but the likelihood of them accomplishing their true desires would be diminished. After discussing pertinent points from the book Enough, we looked over and discussed Dr. O's daily post briefly. To end class, we handed out scorecards and discussed the status of everyone's bases and final reports.
