Abstract
An important part of the work of the Teaching of Ethics project was the collection of information about activities in this area at the college and professional-school levels. There is a significant amount of activity at present in the area of ethical instruction. Indeed, the number of persons and schools involved in ethics education is so large, that any description of activities and programs will by necessity be somewhat incomplete and out of date. Ethical instruction is undergoing rapid development at many schools, and new programs and courses are constantly being added to the curriculum.
