One student, who is Catholic, wants to become a priest. His speech tells about his church, their fundamental beliefs, and his reasons for entering the priesthood. You allow the speech. Were any code of ethics principles violated? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I say no. You allowed them to pick their own topic and made no guidelines or restrictions for them. He choose that particular topic. He is protected by his 1st amendment rights, too. The separation of church and state only applies to the curriculum that the teacher is teaching.
