Abstract	It is important to understand the ethical values of college students because they will be the leaders of the future. As part of an undergraduate honors project, a survey was developed that consisted of eight cases depicting ethical dilemmas in the classroom. Each case included a choice of four actions ranging from most ethical to least ethical. The survey was administered to a convenience sample (N=172) of college students at a large land-grant university. Analysis revealed that responses reflecting ethical values increased with students' age and that female students were more ethical than male students. Those who participated in sports were less ethical than students who did not participate in sports. Contains 2 tables, and a list of ethical dilemma case studies with possible solutions. (ERIC).
