The Center for the Study of Ethics offers an ethics course covering basic ethical theory and practical applications to real-life situations. The course is intended for individuals who do not wish to matriculate into regular college courses but seek educational opportunities. Students who complete the course earn one Continuing Education credit.

The course is discussion-oriented and based on the acclaimed the Ethics in America video series by Fred W. Friendly, and the accompanying text Ethics in America Study Guide by Lisa H. Newton.

The course runs for 5 weeks on Tuesday evenings from 7-9 p.m. Classes begin the first Tuesday of September and February. Tuition is $25.

The subject matter of the spring semester differs from the fall semester, so the course can be repeated.
