Billy bob is now working as a Philosophy Instructor at Neverland Community College. Wendy Darling, one of Billy Bob's students, is seeking employment at a local library and has asked Billy Bob to write her a letter of recommendation.

Although Billy Bob likes Wendy Darling, he does not believe that she would adequately fulfill the responsibilities of the job.

Questions:

What ethical issues are involved in this case?

What are Billy Bob's options?

Is Wendy really not competent, or is Billy Bob just prejudiced against female workers?

What should Billy Bob do? Why?
