| Established in 1998 through an anonymous gift to
the college, the Center for Ethics and World
Societies facilitates discussion of issues arising
from the interactions of different nations, peoples
and communities, with an emphasis on the ethical
aspects of those issues. Committed to no ideological
platform or goal, the center offers a forum for
intensified study and inquiry that supplements the
intellectual life of the Colgate campus and
curriculum. The center uses an interdisciplinary
approach to draw from the expertise of both
distinguished visitors and Colgate faculty members
who have produced significant work in a range of
fields stretching across the humanities, the social
sciences, and the natural sciences. |
| Through its activities, which include lectures,
exhibitions, theatrical and film events, colloquia,
and conferences, the center seeks to develop in
Colgate students an intellectual and ethical
orientation and to help bring about a vital
connection between campus life and the world
outside. While serving the campus community, the
center also seeks to engage local, regional, and
national communities in its considerations of these
issues, and its events are free and open to the
public.
