CASPER ALL SET QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS SET

✔✔When two or more people are experiencing conflict, what factors are most important
to consider before trying to solve the issue? Explain your response. - ✔✔With conflict, I
believe communication and empathy are most important before solving the issue. I
believe active listening and sharing your perspective will open up the dialogue to
understanding what the other party is thinking and feeling. This allows for empathy,
which establishes trust between both parties. By knowing and understanding the other
side, both parties can establish a compromise that everyone agrees upon.
✔✔Do you think school administration should be held responsible for monitoring cyber-
bulling by students? Explain your response. - ✔✔The school's priority is the well-being
of their students, but they must also consider their students' right to autonomy and
privacy. Thus, schools should have the right to make decisions to protect their students
when they have a justifiable belief that a student is being bullied. However, monitoring
of both public and private content is invasive and unnecessary. Continuous monitoring
allows the risk of tipping over to curiosity, voyeurism, and invasion of privacy, blurring
the line for what is profession and what is not.
✔✔Briefly describe a time when you hesitated or chose not to help someone. What
were the reasons behind your dilemma? - ✔✔While working as an ER technician during
COVID-19, I was working as the screener when a young man rushed in and tried to get
inside the ER. He was extremely agitated and distraught. I stopped him and he
identified himself as the brother of a patient. When I looked up the patient, I saw that
she was checked into another hospital and that she did not have any brother listed.
When he asked, I refused to tell him where she was located and what her status was,
citing HIPPA and patient's right to privacy. He became agitated, trying to look at my
computer screen, disrupting the other patients waiting in line. I informed him he should
try to contact the patient or other family members and security had to escort him out.
, ✔✔You are asked to put three items into a time capsule, which will be opened in 300
years. This time capsule is intended to reflect the areas of humanity that are going well,
and those that need improvement, in the current year.
What areas, both positive and negative, do you feel should be highlighted? Explain why
you consider these to be key areas. - ✔✔Today, technology has improved many areas
of our society. Our smartphones allows us to connect with others and ideas in an
instant. With this ability, we can collaborate and innovate unlike before. However, we
have also caused an environmental disaster that has destroyed the precious
biodiversity our world has to offer. Through human means alone, we have caused mass
extinctions in almost every environment.
✔✔You are asked to put three items into a time capsule, which will be opened in 300

What items would you put in the capsule? Explain your response. - ✔✔I would place
Falcon X, the new commercial rocket created by Space X and is the brainchild of Elon
Musk. Many would argue that Falcon X is the pinnacle of space technology that we
have today. Elon Musk is arguably the Newton or Leonardo Da Vinci of our time, as an
inventor. I would also place a Pangolin scale or White Rhino Horn indicating the mass
extinction and wildlife exploitation that is occurring at this time due to human activity and
habitat destruction.
✔✔What responsibility, if any do current generations have for future generations?
Explain your answer. - ✔✔As we rely on this planet for our resources and shelter, we
have the responsibility to maintain this earth for our future generations. As we provide
education, groceries, and homes for our children to grow up with, we should provide a
livable earth for all future children. Our earth also has intrinsic value and we must
preserve it.
✔✔Maintaining work-life balance can be challenging. Why do you think people struggle
to find a balance? - ✔✔For many work and life are equally as important, thus the
difficulty of maintaining a balance. Many times work is not confined to the office and can
reach into our personal lives, which prevents set boundaries. On the other hand, life
includes children and family, which also cannot be confined to a specific time or
location. With smartphones, our employers can reach us via email or a phone call and
expect a quick reply, even when we are home or elsewhere. Similarly, we need to be
able to reach our families, especially in case of emergencies, even when we are at
work.
✔✔Why PA? - ✔✔I chose PA because I wanted a career where I would be passionate
about my work and enjoy for the rest of my life. I love helping others and solving
problems, which drew me to the healthcare sector. However, the PA profession stood
out to me because of its emphasis on helping the underserved, job flexibility, potential
