Section 10, group 2 Kant Touch This

Today after taking the quiz, we continued with midterm reports. The first to go was a guy who did his repot on moral philosophy, which was very interesting. The second was two guys who did theirs on Machiavelli, with a focus on his writings and philosophy in his work The Prince. Those were the only two reports that were done today.
