Guided Discussion: It's an Ethical Conundrum- Where Do You Stand?   

Early in the last century advice columns were called "Agony Aunts" or "Agony Uncles". In our generation we had Dear Abby, Ann Landers, Miss Manners, Dear Prudence amongst many other "problem solvers". Did advice columns end with the advent of the internet and social media? - Heck No!! Now we have sites such as Ask Polly, Dear Prudence, Captain Awkward and of course the New York Times Ethicist. This four week interactive session will explore some of the most interesting, juiciest and most ethical (or unethical) conundrums to see if the so called advice givers and problem solvers actually got the answers right. So let's discuss and let's have some interactive summer fun.

1. Agony Aunts and Uncles
