The course is divided into four parts, which each focus on one human good: dignity, freedom, community, and equality. We focus on conceptual resources that help us to understand the value of each good, think about relevant cases in applied ethics, and consider the ways that good might be reflected in our communication with one another.

Also consider:

• My current teaching on the Body and Ethics in a pioneering general education program at UVA, a flagship Southern public university.
• My teaching experience working with students on, among many other courses, Christian Ethics & Modern Society and Ethics & Public Policy at Princeton. Both are cross-listed with the University Center for Human Values.
• My work with Princeton’s University Center for Human Values – a Center that “strives to provide the larger community with the space and resources to reflect systematically about fundamental questions of value—how we should understand our moral identities, how we should treat each other, and how we should try to shape our world.”
• My extensive work in the Politics & Philosophy Departments at Princeton, as corroborated by my transcripts.
