R.E.A.C.H. Initiative: Integrating Community and Curricular Ethics
The development of an Ethics Across the Curriculum
project to integrate ethics into professional training and to extend the reach of humanities programs into the community.
The humanities are at the center of a needful rethinking of the purpose of undergraduate education at our institution, as well as the public mission of state-assisted universities. Our proposal brings together, via a slate of new curricular and co-curricular resources focused on Ethics, ethics literacy and ethics agency. The project proposes two major elements of institutional revision: (i) Curriculum change aimed at harmonizing professional training with early exposure to philosophical and research ethics, and (ii) Integration of community ethics and instructional ethics curriculum. This grant will support the necessary planning to create a community ethics network, a program to support faculty via ethics across the curriculum faculty seminars, and planning the establishment of a public ethics resource center to be an anchoring partner between community-based organizations and university faculty and students.
