Students will participate in each class from their home computers. They will be expected to have webcams (which can be purchased for $30 at stores like Target)
Most people think their faith should have some impact on how they behave.
Ethics is the study of the way people think about moral behavior:
What rules should we follow? What kind of people should we be?
Join us for a consideration of the way Christians think abouth these things.
Saturdays: September 6, 20, 27, November 1 and December 6.
9:00am-1:00pm
NY Conference Students:
Course Fee: $250; Audit $175; Repeat Course Audit $100
Students outside the NY Conference:
Course Fee: $275; Audit $200 (plus Distance Learning Support Fee)
Distance Learning requires technological support. The NY Conference provides that support for its students; we ask other UCC Conferences and participating denominations to provide that support for their students ($69 per course or $133 per semester). When students outside the NY Conference register, we recommend that they ask their UCC Conferences or denominations to contribute the distance learning support fee (payment can be made at www.uccny.org: click on donate button and specify "DLSF" with student's name on the NYSOM line). If no wider church support is available, the Distance Learning Support Fee is the student's responsibility.
Registration Deadline: August 21, 2014
(Class is limited to 12 students and 5 auditors)
