Fall Football Forum: A Discussion on Honor

Moderator Elizabeth Levy Paluck, Assistant Professor of Psychology and Public Affairs and the John Maclean Jr. Presidential University Preceptor, convened a panel to tackle the topic of honor in light of President Eisgruber's selection of Professor Kwame Anthony Appiah's The Honor Code for his inaugural "Princeton Pre-Read" program. Distinguished alumni in the fields of medicine, law enforcement, and social services bring personal experience from their personal and professional lives to bear on the question of how decisions we, as individuals and organizations, rely on honor to inform our codes of conduct and to make decisions about how to live our lives. Alumni panelists included: Andrew Bruck '05, Assistant U.S. Attorney, Newark, New Jersey; Evan S. Fieldston '98, assistant professor of pediatrics at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and attending physician in the Division of General Pediatrics at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia; Martin Johnson '81, President and founder of Isles Inc., community development organization in Trenton, New Jersey; and Nancy Rankin *75, Vice President for Policy, Research and Advocacy at the Community Service Society of New York.
