Students will be expected to write a 13 to 15-page term paper. Students will choose a case of real world ethical quandary in political administration, subject to my approval (but you can pick any case where sources are available, including local and historical events).
The paper will include research about the case (What happened? Timeline? Significance? Larger Implications? Why does this case matter?), and must include and account of what mistakes were made regarding ethics in the case, and how ethics should have led to a different course of action and what we should learn from the case as a whole.
