To address ethics issues great and small, a panel of three professionals will talk about their on-the-job experiences Friday at 10:30 a.m. in the Ernie Pyle Auditorium. All are welcome to attend.

- Alumnus Dave Furst, Indianapolis WRTV-TV sports director and anchor;
- Leisa Richardson, assistant metro editor, The Indianapolis Star;
- Michelle Sinning, senior account manager, Hirons & Company public relations/advertising firm.
Career Services Director Marcia Debnam says the panel should help students connect these professionals’ real-world experiences to their studies as well as prepare them for the types of issues they may face on the job.
