1.  Read and annotate “Loyalty:  Paradoxical Faith That “Not Ok” is Ok”.  Pay special attention to how the author defines loyalty and how that applies to your own life (text to self)

2.  Create a brace map to analyze the article using SOAPSTone.  Your frame of reference should be the article and your map question is “what does loyalty mean in real life applications?”

3.  Write a SHORT paragraph answering the following question:  Is it possible to be loyal to a person (like a spouse) AND an idea (like freedom) without shortchanging either one?  Be prepared to discuss in class at a later point.
