The approach to Social responsibility within business <strong>School</strong>s<br />
<strong>Business</strong> schools have been criticized for their role in creating a tribe of money hungry and irresponsible<br />
individuals with little regard for Social Responsibility (SR). These feelings have echoed throughout the media,<br />
especially after the financial crisis. <strong>Business</strong> schools have reacted by implementing Hippocratic oaths<br />
for MBAs, employing more ethics driven courses and investing in PR to show involvement of their students<br />
in various not for profit causes. Are business schools doing enough to ensure that their students internalize<br />
concepts of social responsibility? Is the availability and frequency of ethical classes something that companies<br />
consider before recruiting in MBA programs? Are SR and profitability complementary or mutually<br />
exclusive? Join us in a lively discussion to determine whether business schools should focus more on educating<br />
their students on SR for the benefit of society at large, or whether the media is being too idealistic in<br />
trying to find a home for SR within business schools.<br />
