The Ripon College Ethical Leadership Program is the only Ethical Leadership program in the country that combines adademic leadership studies with experiences that help prepare participants to tackle challenging and important ethical decisions that benefit our campus, our community and our lives.  

The Ethical Leadership Program at Ripon College asks the question “who do you want to be” and integrates these ideals into “what” a person wants to be by being the catalyst that empowers people to integrate ethical ideals into everything they do.  In other words we talk about having the courage to make decisions that reflect our values and benefit the common good.  We focus on empowering students, faculty, staff and the community to live with a purpose, trusting themselves and respecting others when faced with difficult decisions while being self aware, engaging in holistic academic learning and collaboration around ethical questions, demonstrating integrity at all times even during difficult situations, asking compelling questions with time for reflection and serving the community and the common good.
