The Essay Topic:
The Vermont Constitution lists civic virtues in Chapter 1, Article 18: justice (fairness), moderation (not being too extreme), temperance (self control), industry (hard work), and frugality (being careful with money). Think about these qualities and decide which one, above all others, is the most important for Vermonters to aspire to and why. Give examples that illustrate your choice - either from Vermont history or a current Vermont issue.
