The Felician Ethics Institute is an academic center, housed within the Department of Philosophy at Felician College, for inquiry into topics in moral philosophy. Co-directed by Joseph Biehl and Irfan Khawaja, the Institute aims to stimulate discussion of diverse topics in moral philosophy through its annual Ethics Conference each spring, an Author-Meets-Critics Colloquium Series each fall, Socratic Discussion Forums twice each semester, and programming on ethical topics on WRFC, Radio Felician. Though mostly focused on moral philosophy in the academic tradition, the Institute hopes also to facilitate interdisciplinary inquiry in ethics, to bring moral theorizing to bear on everyday issues, and to draw on the resources of the non-academic community in its projects. The Institute is governed by an Institute Board consisting of the members of the Felician College Department of Philosophy.
