Mason professor offers course in civility

“Mediocrity is no longer an option for George Mason students,” says Leslie Morton.

Morton isn’t talking about aptitude or academics; she’s talking about good manners.

“We should never sink to the lowest common denominator,” she adds.

Morton, a professor in the College of Education and Human Development, began teaching a one-credit professionalism and civility course in the fall of 2010.
