REVIEWING CODES OF ETHICS An ethical code is only as good as its application by practitioners. There are variations among different organizations' codes, but they often have a great deal in common. Understanding the ethical practice of public relations and developing clear ways to think about ethics are both essential to success.

Review the code of ethics from the PRSA and from one other public institution provided in the learning resources. Submit a 2–3-page paper that addresses the following points:

Briefly compare the two codes, highlighting the differences between them. Describe a situation that might violate one code but not the other. If there are provisions of either code that you believe should be revised or strengthened, identify them and explain your rationale and suggestion. If you don’t believe either code could be improved upon, explain why not.
