Assessment Description

Review the assigned reading, "The Elliot Richardson Lecture 2008: Ethics in Times of Crisis," paying particular attention to the documentation of some of the bureaucratic problems that occurred during the Hurricane Katrina crisis in New Orleans.

1. What were the key issues this article discusses?

2. Do these issues seem to be germane today?

3. Address the ethical conundrums for each area discussed.

4. Do you agree with the article? Why or why not? Defend your answer with evidence.

5. As a new emergency manager, discuss how this article will impact your foundation for ethical considerations.
