Ethics Scholars Program Workshop
The Ethics Scholars Program Workshop is a one-day course offered each semester by the Rutland Institute to allow graduate students to explore ethics and ethical decision-making outside of the classroom environment. While originally designed for graduate students participating in the Distinguished Ethics Scholars Program as an opportunity to fulfill their coursework requirement outside of their limited class schedule, the workshop is also available to any graduate student interested in ethics and all undergraduate students in the Distinguished Ethics Scholars Program.
Monday, January 6th, 2025 from 8:00 am – 5:00 pm
Hardin Hall, Room 235
Registration is due by January 1st, 2025 and is limited to the first 50 participants.
Continental breakfast, afternoon snack, and supplies for the day will all be provided. Lunch will be provided at one of Clemson's excellent dining facilities. Hardin Hall is relatively close to the McAlister Dining Hall, Raising Cane's, Twisted Taco, Which Wich, Starbucks, and the Chick-fil-a at Fernow Street.
