Exploring Academic Ethics - Paperback
by Steven M. Cahn (Author)
Academic ethics is the study of moral problems arising in higher education. These may concern the responsibilities of professors or the institutional policies of colleges and universities. In this work, Steven M. Cahn, a pioneer in the field, brings together his essays concerning four provocative issues: curricular controversies, tenure processes, affirmative action, and pedagogic obligations. Written with his characteristic clarity and imaginative examples, Cahn vividly demonstrates how academic life is replete with practices that raise moral concerns.
Steven M. Cahn is professor emeritus of philosophy at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, where he served for nearly a decade as provost and vice president for academic affairs, then as acting president. He taught at Dartmouth College, Vassar College, New York University, the University of Rochester, and the University of Vermont, where he chaired the Department of Philosophy. He is the author or editor of more than seventy books.
