backlar writes about keeping the testimony of the primate experimenters secret and confidential.
what if it against my ethics?
what if i have ethics?
maybe that puts me at a disadvantage to take biomedical ethics at PSU.

"In order to maintain a 'safe place' in our classroom for each of us -- being
mindful of the principle of 'respect for persons'-- we will hold our conversations as
confidential in precisely the same way which we do when we work with other
bioethicists, clinicians, patients, family members when we conduct an
'Ethics Consult Service' where we address issues relevant to patients in clinical practice
or in the hospital. The 'principle' of respecting confidentiality is an essential
part of the practice of medicine.
Furthermore, we owe respect to our guest speakers. The clinicians,
researchers, and professors who so generously take time from their busy schedules to visit our class
and share their expertise with you well understand the importance of the work to which you aspire.
As our guests trust that their conversations with you and with each other will remain private and
confidential."
