In the corporate world, I foresee many instances where ethical challenges can be thrown my way.  Having worked in higher education for 3 1/2 years, I am sure to find obvious differences in the routine operations and whatever ethical issues that come with.
With my intentions to concentrate on the P.R. aspect of the lovely corporate world, I hope to never have to compromise on my morals or dignity to satisfy and please those whose signatures are artfully crafted on my paycheck every month.  Though P.R. pretty much means damage control, and by control it sometimes requires dwelling in that gray area of truth to keep everyone happy, both consumers and the higher powers that be.

With the unfortunate current events in France, its officials have to use all resources at hand to do some serious damage control.  France is now being criticized for its poor intelligence in the war against terror.  Having been under surveillance for several years, these terrorists shouldn't have been able to successfully commit such heinous crimes.  The older brother's trip to Yemen should have raised the biggest red flag that should have sent him straight to prison.  What I see is unethical in France, is the poor efforts in helping the immigrants fully integrate with the main stream french society and feel genuine patriotism.  Even if they are French born, they are secluded in the outskirts of Paris, in these ghettos where no hope for proper education survives or the commitment for success strives.  They are placed there, bound to fail, their easiest refuge is crime.  France cannot go on the news and ask for its people to be united, it cannot scream its moto of Fraternity and Equality, those two don't exist in those ghettos.  Racism is prominent in France, and last week was a simple proof.

The one thing I admire about living in this country, is its ethical qualities even if it isn't perfect at times.  Having grown up in a different country, (Morocco) I came to see the big differences in society, morals, norms and simply ethics.  Even to the simplest of human rights, a copy of a birth certificate can cost you many please and thank you's as well as $30 under the table.  You are made to feel sorry you are asking and hope for a yes.  This makes you question your existence, since your own proof of birth can't be produced.  Makes you want to never complain next time you're in line at the DMV!  For this, I appreciate working and serving ethically, remembering this, will help me make the right decisions.

From Module 1 & 2, I was so happy to have acquired new skills to put on my resume.  I can finally appreciate a photo taken by a professional camera and never use iPhone pictures for christmas cards ever! again!  I am happy to have been introduced to Final cut pro, I was never exposed to film making or video making, and experiencing its making form little clips, pictures and audio to enjoying the final product is so rewarding.  It's like motherhood :)

Seeing that it's a big issue today, I would like to talk more about ethical issues in the media.  There is great injustice and not much is being done to change that.  I would like to understand more how the media world works, especially news outlets.
