Ethics in Higher Education with Rebecca Taylor and Ashley Floyd Kuntz

Book cover: Ethics in Higher Education

Dr. Rebecca M. Taylor and Dr. Ashley Floyd Kuntz join host Mike Palmer to talk about Ethics in Higher Education: Promoting Equity and Inclusion Through Case-Based Inquiry, a new book that they edited from Harvard Education Press.

We hear how Ashley and Rebecca got interested in studying ethics and ethics education as we dive into the unique approach they took to get the book together. Through the use of fictionalized cases that resonate with the news of today, the book provides commentary from a diverse cross-section of evaluators who respond in diverse and insightful ways.

We explore cases about free speech and controversial speakers on campus and social media activism among tenure-track faculty in an engaging and relevant foray into the ethical quandaries facing higher ed in these challenging times.
