The Ethics Lab conducted on 05NOV2015 was a great success. Displaying the realities of the "bystander effect," cadets were exposed to role players who simulated stealing an Ipad from c/Harrington prior to lab's commencement. The multiple cadets who stood up to assist (most notably c/Tohti, c/Nay, and c/Camacho) rose to the occasion. After the demonstration, class instruction was given by c/Carrington, c/Bayley, and c/Tarbox. Using the Holocaust and a war crime case study as a platform for discussion the lab focused predominantly on the laws of armed conflict and the rules of engagement.
"I'm up, they see me, I'm down!"
