INQ-120 | The Good Place

Full Title: The Good Place

Topic Description:

This course introduces students to moral philosophy by asking two primary questions: what makes someone “good?” and how would following that theory get someone to “the good place?” Using moral philosophy texts, students will watch and analyze NBC’s hit TV series The Good Place to explore ethical issues raised about how we should live, how we should act, and how we might live to be “good.” For the final project, students will produce a podcast that explores an ethical dilemma raised in the TV series to examine how people might live and act in that situation to be in a “good place.”
