Integrity: 2016-2017
Program Overview Integrity allows students to examine their personal values and the intersections between morals, ethics, and integrity.
The program reviews a variety of terms related to ethical leadership and presents concepts through a series of activities
presented in the form of case studies. Students are taught to differentiate an ethical dilemma from a moral temptation
and are presented with tools for ethical decision making. The curriculum draws upon the research of Kellerman (2004),
and Kidder (1995, 2009). Integrity was a 6-hour program, offered twice during the 2016-2017 academic year (10/22/16 &
3/11/17). A total of 181 students attended and 99.5% completed the post-program assessment.
What are students learning? Students indicated that they had learning gains in the areas of ethical leadership and how to make decisions based on this
concept. Also, 73% found the program to be a valuable learning experience and 77% indicated they would use what they
learned and apply it to their experiences in college. Many participants commented that the movie and case studies
(activities during the program) challenged them to think about ethics and their values in a different way. Students further
commented that their ability to understand ethics and its intersection with concepts of leadership and Integrity had
substantially increased because of the program. A student stated, “[I had not known] the definitions of ethics, character,
etc.… previously.” Respondents (92%), also indicated that their small group facilitators helped to engage them with the
content of the program by facilitating continuous participation from all group members.
