Program in Agricultural, Food, and Environmental Ethics
The Program in Agricultural, Food, and Environmental Ethics aims to offer educational programs and courses, conduct original interdisciplinary research, and foster public discussion and debate about food consumption, the human relationship to the nonhuman environment, and the ethics of agricultural research, production, and distribution. The goals of the Program are threefold: to formulate and identify questions of ethical significance to Midwestern residents concerning agriculture, food, and the environment; to develop and evaluate moral theories and principles related to these questions; and to explore the application of these moral theories and principles by individuals and groups. The Program was directed by Dan Philippon, Assistant Professor in the Department of Rhetoric. A new director has not been named for 2007-08.
