Some minor adjustments to the syllabus:

On Monday we’ll discuss the in-class carbon footprint exercise and the movie from Friday. I’ll hand back argument outlines, and although we won’t spend as much time on them, they will inform our larger discussion. For instance, we’ll talk about how well virtue ethics supports this issue of reducing carbon impact. Thus, there is no reading assignment for Monday, but there is an excellent short video I’ll discuss in my next post.

On Wednesday, I’ll lecture on John Rawls’ justice framework, and the reading is available through both MyCourses and library reserves, whichever you find easier.

For Friday, I’ll post some more material here about Rawls, we’ll complete that discussion, and there will be a short quiz (note that it was originally scheduled for Wednesday).
