The Mudd Undergraduate Journal of Ethics (MUJE) is an interdisciplinary, online publication that examines ethical concerns from a wide range of disciplines. This student-run journal works in concert with the Roger Mudd Center for Ethics at Washington and Lee University where year-long themes are investigated. MUJE submissions can relate directly to the yearly theme or address other ethical concerns and topics. The 2024-2025 theme is How We Live and Die: Stories, Values, and Communities.
