need to resources is optional. The final paper will consist of a project of your choosing dealing with some topic related to the course readings, discussions, videos, etc. I would like it to be a writing assignment in which you are to research some dimension of the Catholic Social Teaching (CST) tradition we have discussed in class. Specifically, your assignment should focus on how one aspect of the CST raises and attempts to answer and defend questions of ultimate meaning and value. The essay should also include an exploration of a particular movement associated with your area of research. For example, if you wish to focus on the Option for the Poor and Vulnerable or the Care for Gods Creations or the Dignity of Work and the Rights of Workers, your research should highlight the work of a particular organization whos mission in focused in that particular area. This assignment is a concluding essay in which you use the essay format described for the other assigned essays and where I will assess an important goal of the course: describe specific ways that religious traditions, especially Catholic Christianity, raise and attempt to answer questions of ultimate meaning and value. The lens by which your essay engages this question is through the CST. Your essay must be no fewer than 1,700 words.
