Maurice wants the male lead in the school play. The problem is that rehearsal is held for two hours every weekday afternoon for the next three months. If he gets the lead, he must quit his after school job at the mall. If

he quits now, the manager probably would not hire him for full-time summer work. Maurice desperately needs

the income to help his family pay medical bills.

Since he is senior, this is Maurice's last chance to be in a high school production. The best actors in the spring are

sometimes chosen for Summer Theater. This often leads to a career in drama, which Maurice has always wanted.

3. What other alternatives might Maurice have?

4. How would you resolve Maurice's goal conflict if this were your decision?
