The Ethics and Leadership major meets a critical need to integrate such expertise from the human sciences with the best of thought from philosophy, religion, psychology, and literature about the ultimate ends of human life, about right and wrong, rights, duties and the common good. Leaders need the ability to see, frame, and think wisely about the ethical issues that confront them. The major is not just for those who aspire to hold political office or high-ranking positions within various organizations. Citizens or members of organizations should have thoughtful and informed conceptions of what makes a good leader, so that they may choose wisely or be prepared to become one. People often serve as leaders or co-leaders in smaller groups within their organizations. People find themselves in social contexts where they may be called upon to lead, and they may decide to do so simply not because they desired to be leaders all along, but because they are needed.
