Description
This two-credit intensive weekend course will examine some real world dilemmas you could encounter as an administrator, dilemmas not necessarily covered in a text book. You will not walk away with a set of answers to these situations; however, the ultimate goal is to know yourself and realize how your moral compass influences the tough choices you may have to make.
