I’d like to talk about a presentation I did at Georgia Tech’s athletic department. The collegiate athletic space is wrought with ethical issues, issues of integrity.

January 6 was an unusual day. January 6 was a day we’ve never seen or thought we’ve seen in our country. Our country of democracy and freedom. When the settlers first came and set up our constitution and wrote it, the idea of fanning the flame over lies would never have been supported by […]

Is wearing a mask an ethical decision? Pretty much all of the world there is some level of a mask requirement. I live in Florida and there’s a mandatory mask order for the entire city of Miami. If you are working out at the gym you have to wear a mask. If you are anywhere […]

My “baby” sister, Subha Airan-Javia, is a hospitalist at the Hospital of University of Pennsylvania. Her husband is an ENT surgeon at the Children’s Hospital of Pennsylvania. They are on the front lines along with hundreds of thousands of other health care workers around the world. As the pandemic of COVID-19 was beginning to globally […]
