Business Ethics - BAM 311

My only experience with ethics as a subject of study was in my introductory philosophy course. Business Ethics was the perfect followup to the subject by taking the broad topic of ethics as a whole and focusing it specifically on how business and marketing are conducted. My major takeaway from this course is that ethics rarely deal in issues of simple rights and wrongs, and while one might have a specific affinity toward one stance, specifically if it aligns with strong personal morals, that doesn't necessarily mean that it is right or even the best option. Business Ethics opened my eyes to a part of business that I have always been aware of, but it introduced me to the fact that things are almost never black and white and that even decisions that seem to be the most beneficial and moral can end up either having the most detrimental consequences, or the greatest results.
