We have a productive and engaged faculty, which sponsors a number of student organizations, and works in cooperation with professional colleagues in other departments from across the College to advance student learning about philosophy and ethics. We are also active in the Discipline, and are particularly supportive of the Association for Practical and Professional Ethics (APPE), which is a comprehensive, international organization dedicated to advancing scholarship, education, and practice in practical and professional ethics.
