Ethics: It can be complicated

What would you do when you’re faced with a situation that seems “wrong”?  Is it an abuse of policy? A situation with a student and teacher that appears to blur lines. What about situations that may seem innocent on face value but could have layers?

As USG begins its Ethics Awareness Week, Nov. 6-10, we have several GHC departments that will discuss “how” they can easily find themselves in situations that can create real problems.

USG will have presentations that are worth checking out:

  1. USG Chancellor’s Panel Event 11/8 10-11am (promotional image/details attached again) – Link to JOIN LIVE
  1. USG Ethics & Compliance Best Practices Panel 11/9 10-11am (promotional image/details attached again) – Link to REGISTER NOW.

Stay tuned for discussions from GHC’s President Mike Hobbs as well as department of Athletics, Human Resources, Information Technology, and Academic Integrity.
