There are lots of reasons to be moral: avoiding prison, hell, and appearances on Gawker.com are just a few. But you’re in luck, oh principle–perplexed undergrad, for Harvard has bestowed its most righteous of all Cores, Moral Reasoning, upon thee. Unfortunately, it’s often righteously boring.In theory, Moral Reasoning courses will help you learn to deal with tough ethical questions, and face up to quandaries that enable you to hone your moral compass.

In particular, Science B takes on the biological, evolutionary, and environmental end of things. While the classes are often too broad to allow for any kind of in-depth study (“That’s outside the scope of the course” is an ‘answer’ you’ll come to expect from your TF), the subject matter is often fascinating enough to serve...
