In this episode, Dr. Peterson discusses the diversification of the United States Military Academy over time in terms of gender, ethnicity, and race, and how as the Army and society evolve, so too do the challenges being faced related to the complexities of behavior and character. He discusses how the launch of the CIAG is aimed at tackling this issue through character education and by weaving character development into other West Point programs. Listen.
