Viewpoint: code of ethics or no code of ethics ‐ a university experience

Roger K. Doost

Abstract

Focuses on Clemson University’s failed attempt to introduce a code of ethics. Looks at the flaws in the State’s Code of Ethics, and considers the limitations of such a code and the alienation which it can cause. Concludes that, rather than developing a new set of codes, greater emphasis should be placed on cultivating ethics awareness.
