Use these events to write an evaluation of punishment report to Cole’s Circle. Your report should outline the successes and the failures of Cole’s banishment, and conclude with a summary of who is to blame for Cole’s fate. Thoughts to consider...

• Were Cole’s actions his responsibility?• Is the Circle responsible for not properly punishing Cole?• Is Garvey to blame for putting too much trust in Cole?• Is anybody or anything else responsible for the outcome?• Should Cole be sent back to the island to complete his punishment?
