In this paper I introduce the background situation that triggered the need for a particular project offered in a senior undergraduate course in health care ethics. Background information is provided to support the rationale of the project in the course. Then, the argument that opens the challenge to the students is outlined, followed by a representative sampling of the students' responses. Finally, some tentative observations are offered, along with a suggestion for future directions that such projects might take to foster the goals of nursing education to promote the skills or critical thinking and argumentation.
