Ethics is Everywhere

The application of ethics is interwoven into our daily lives with nearly every decision we make.

“Ethics is an area that faculty regularly ask their students to consider in their courses,” said Mark Pritchard, event coordinator and CWU management professor. Pritchard helped facilitate CWU’s 2021 Worldview and Social Justice forums.
