The Carol and Lawrence Zicklin Center for Business Ethics Research at Wharton

and The Robert Zicklin Center for Corporate Integrity at Baruch present

a debate and panel discussion:

 

“Business and Religious Accommodations: Legal and Ethical Issues”

 

Monday, March 20, 12:35pm; a light lunch will be served following debate at 1:55pm

Newman Library, Room 750.

 

This event will address the legal and ethical implications of the conflict between reproductive and gay rights, on the one hand, and religious freedom, on the other, as it plays out in the commercial world. First, we will host a debate between Gregory Baylor, Senior Counsel for the Alliance Defending Freedom, and Gregory Lipper, Partner, Clinton Brook & Peed; former Senior Litigation Counsel, Americans United for Separation of Church and State. We will then hear a panel of academics and practitioners who will dig more deeply into the issues that arise when the newfound protections for gay rights collide with the reemerging movement for religious liberty.

 

RSVP is required via pre-registration.

 

To pre-register: online; call 646-312-3231; or e-mail Matthew.LePere@baruch.cuny.edu.
