Is there Justice, or Just Me? with Brooks Susman

This is a 6-meeting virtual class using the Zoom platform. 

Wednesdays, Oct 8, 15, 22, 29, Nov 5, 12, 6-7:30 pm Central time.

About this class: How do we choose? What philosophies, theologies, life lessons, politics or leaders serve as the guide to our decisions? Is what we determine as "good" ethical and honorable? Or as it is "good for me" it is therefore "good"? We will pursue how choices are made, what "ologies" and "Isms" influence us and together discuss "what is both just and righteous". 

Skills Acquired: Critical Thinking, Ethical Reasoning, Philosophical Inquiry, Social Perceptiveness, Discussion and Collaboration, Cultural Awareness

Please note: This class will be held live on Zoom during the dates and time listed above. If you can’t attend a session or if the time doesn’t work for you, a password-protected course page will host video recordings for registered participants to watch at their convenience.
