City Ethics in the News ! Quoted in NY Times

City Ethics was present at the Ethics and Leadership Camp sponsored by the Markkula Center for Ethics at Santa Clara University on June 27 and 28, 2006. Carla Miller presented to the group and covered Best Practices in Ethics across the United States. The Camp was covered by the New York Times and Carla was quoted.
