Q3- Goldstein Chapter 5- An Orgy of Investigation by Emily Siegfried https://padlet.com/siegfriedemily/6pr9fmyccvxm Why do you think that Mcdowell didn't sign the Loyalty Pledge? If you were in her shoes would you sign Snyder's Loyalty Pledge? en-us 2019-02-27 18:38:40 UTC 2025-10-20 11:48:46 UTC hello@padlet.com Group 5 https://padlet.com/siegfriedemily/6pr9fmyccvxm/wish/336480253 She was raised as a Quaker, she didn't believe in violence. It went against her beliefs. We probably wouldn't sign it, however with a principal or head figure present, some people would crack under the pressure. We also think that she was fearful of losing her job.]]> 2019-02-28 16:18:01 UTC https://padlet.com/siegfriedemily/6pr9fmyccvxm/wish/336480253 Group 2 https://padlet.com/siegfriedemily/6pr9fmyccvxm/wish/336480257 McDowell didn't sign the Loyalty Pledge because she was a religious Quaker and didn't believe in war. She disagreed with the government's use of violence. Sometimes you need to make a stand, but other times it is important to put your family's needs above your opinions.]]> 2019-02-28 16:18:01 UTC https://padlet.com/siegfriedemily/6pr9fmyccvxm/wish/336480257 Group 1 siegfriedemily https://padlet.com/siegfriedemily/6pr9fmyccvxm/wish/336480273 Mcdowell did not sign the Pledge due to her religious beliefs. All of us would sign it because we would still have a job and we would not have to follow what the Pledge says for us to do. ]]> 2019-02-28 16:18:03 UTC https://padlet.com/siegfriedemily/6pr9fmyccvxm/wish/336480273 Group 4 https://padlet.com/siegfriedemily/6pr9fmyccvxm/wish/336480389 She didn't sign it because it was against her beliefs. "She was a Pacifist who opposed, in principle, all wars, no matter what their cause" (page 93). No we would not sign because it is going against our beliefs, and we don't want to sign away our lives to do wrong.

"McDowell said she was sure most Americans, including her own students, would do so, but that she could not; there were "many ways of resisting" hostility other than with violence." (Goldstein, p. 94) We would have to know where we were at in life in order to decide if we would sign it or not. https://padlet.com/siegfriedemily/6pr9fmyccvxm/wish/336480485 2019-02-28 16:18:21 UTC https://padlet.com/siegfriedemily/6pr9fmyccvxm/wish/336480485
