...says morals and ethics are part of a continuum with "self-regulation" at one end and "heterogulation" at the other.
But at Language Log they're not sure "heterogulation" is a word. Several definitions have been proposed, probably the most interesting being:
..."the act of ogling," so "heterogulation" would mean ogling a member of the opposite sex: "My heterogulation of that babe led to a fight with her boyfriend."
What is the LAC asking their librarians to do, exactly? Does one "self regulate" before or after heterolgulation?
I would just love to have a business card with the title The Champion, Values and Ethics!
ReplyDeleteActually, as I read the slides about 2/3 or 3/4 of the material is just what any civil servant is expected to do. Some of the personal stuff seems closer to violating free speech rights though.
