Ethics in Leadership • “Morality is not an issue only when problems arise. Responsibility for individual and social welfare is part of the institutional landscape, a daily occurrence manifested in decision making on all levels of the college or university and in the goals toward which the decision making is directed. An ethical analysis that highlights the interconnectedness of all elements in the institution--an ethics of ethos--brings to attention the complexity of the moral life and the subtle nature of responsibility in higher education. “ ---”The Leadership Compass. Values and Ethics in Higher Education,” Wilcox & Ebbs
