Professor Robert Garmong's curriculum for Philosophy I (Ethics) is available.
The following books are required:
Plato, The Apology of Socrates
Allan Bloom, The Closing of the American Mind (excerpts)
The King James Bible (Matthew, Luke, and Acts)
Plato, Euthyphro
Aristotle, Nicomachean Ethics
John Stuart Mill, Utilitarianism and On Liberty
Immanuel Kant, Grounding for the Metaphysics of Morals
Ayn Rand, The Virtue of Selfishness
The following movies/TV shows are analyzed:
High Noon
Casablanca
Buffy the Vampire Slayer (selected episodes)
The list is quite good and not particularly Objectivist. I seem to recall that Rand was a big fan of Casablanca.
