| Y10.0573 - BUSINESS ETHICS Show Description | ||||||||
| This course is designed to educate students on managing business enterprises and other organizations ethically. We are in an era in which ethical and legal issues have become paramount, in part, because of many high profile cases of ethical violations in the corporate world, but more importantly, there is increased awareness in society that organizations, managers and employees at large have a responsibility to examine the impact on their actions on individuals and society at large. The course emphasizes individual, corporate and societal ethics and how managers can make informed choices when confronted with ethical dilemmas. Case analyses, best practices and lectures on guiding principles and conceptual frameworks, provide a collective medium of instruction in this course. | ||||||||

| Y26.6690 - SP TPCS IN POLITICS: LIBERALISM & INDIVIDUALITY Show Description | ||||||||
| Our focus in this course will be on the relationship between Christianity and politics in the modern era. We will read texts from the modern canon with the intention of understanding the differing modes of engagement with religion. We will see that this has entailed neutrality, rejection, or an embrace, whether warm or stifling. None of these approaches have been wholly successful, or a complete failure - so we will discuss the ways in which religious belief and secularism have encountered each other in the contemporary world. Overall, students will be offered a new way to think about the evolving relationship between religion and politics and the ways in which it shapes our lives. | ||||||||

We will begin the course with a focus on the biology and neurochemistry of addiction, followed by learning about some of the major addictive disorders (e.g., gambling, drugs, alcohol and tobacco, eating). We will discuss different and interconnected explanatory theories of addiction including biological, behavioral, cognitive, psychodynamic and protective/risk factor models, including the role of parental/peer and other social influences (e.g., marketing). We will also explore research that describes sensitivity/vulnerability to addiction for women versus men and comparatively by race/ethnicity. We will then cover the relationship of addiction to various other factors such as violence (stranger and family), homelessness, unemployment, co-occurrence with various other mental disorders, criminal justice involvement, and intergenerational transmission. We will end the course with a discussion of treatment and other interventions to address addictions. Lectures will be augmented by assigned readings, videos, guest lectures, field trips to treatment centers and in class exercises. | ||||||||
