  1. Who is Responsible? • You will be determining who was responsible for Gatsby’s death. Create a circle graph in which you assign the person(s) listed the percentage of responsibility you believe they should bear for Gatsby’s death. • Remember, all percentages must add up to one hundred. You must use at least six people/groups or colors listed in your graph. This assignment is worth 20 points: one point for each person(s) in your graph and two points for your explanation of each group. • Use the colors listed below for each section of your graph and assign a percentage that designates the amount of responsibility for each person(s). Then provide the written explanation on the back or on a separate piece of paper, not in the graph itself. Your explanation must be at least two sentences and demonstrate accurate textual knowledge of the book to receive full points. • Remember this is not a court case. It is about assigning blame, not about finding one person guilty. If you take this assignment too literally, you will not receive full credit.
