ETHICS MATTERS

2ND DINNER MEETING FOR – BACK TO BACK ETHICS CREDITS
TIME:  5:00 p.m. – 7:15 p.m.

OVERVIEW
Ethics matters everywhere and always. In the everyday as well as the once-in-a-lifetime events of human existence. But especially in times of turbulence, it is important to be able to look to secure fundamental ethical principles and to know people of moral character. This short session will aim to unpack what that means.
