Monmouth University’s Honors School is pleased to announce a new partnership with the Ranney School on its Upper School\u2019s Ethics Symposium. Administrators and professors from Monmouth University will present lectures on such topics as ethics in business, science, and politics at the Ranney School.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe are always looking for ways to connect with our neighbors in Monmouth County,\u201d said Head of School Lawrence S. Sykoff, EdD. \u201cOur sophomores will now have a unique opportunity to learn the value of ethics from guest lecturers at a college level.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Throughout the Upper School\u2019s six-week symposium, students will experience and witness ethical case studies, historical texts, and professional insights that will teach them to research, discuss, listen, debate, collaborate, reflect, write, and express their own ethical viewpoints. \u201cDiscussing ethics and asking questions about proper and improper judgment speaks to the very core of our democracy and to democratic theory in general,\u201d said Dr. Kevin Dooley, dean of Monmouth University\u2019s Honors School, at the first event held on January 26, 2012.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This joint venture will feature Monmouth University specialists leading discussions in the Theories and Foundations of Ethics, Bio-Ethics, Ethics in Politics, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
