Deadline to Register: March 22, 2017
Why
do good attorneys and organizations act unethically? The session
will begin with a discussion of the classic Stanley Milgram punishment
experiments, seeking to understand how they help explain unethical
behavior. The class then uses specific case studies to provide a
foundation for
an analysis regarding how the fostering of ethical diversity
within organizations can prevent the slippery slopes that lead to
administrative evil or unethical behavior.
Lunch and registration will begin at 11:45 a.m. The program will begin at 12:00 p.m.
If you need transportation to the CLE, consider taking
the light rail to the
Robert Street Station, which is one block from the Judicial Center. Parking can
be tight in the Capitol area, especially during the Legislative Session.

information on the Capitol CLE Series can be found here!
