In collaboration with the Gallup Organization, the survey probed the relationship between students' moral reasoning and their thoughts about the environment, paying particular attention to their attitudes toward taking action on behalf of the environment. Results of the project are described in the report.

Leadership & Core Values (email for free copy)
In 1998, the Steering Committee for the Illinois Community Colleges Leadership and Core Values Initiative contracted with the Institute for Global Ethics to develop a questionnaire that could be used in the community colleges and with the general population of the state of Illinois. All 48 colleges participated. While the community-college population was being sampled, IGE also contracted with the Gallup Organization to survey the general population of Illinois. Results of the project are described in the report "Leadership and Core Values: The People of Illinois and their Community Colleges."
