Why start out with a forum on ethics? To set the tone for the remainder of the semester. Student’s written work on assignments and essay questions should be original, not copied from the internet. This is an ethical issue.
The text defines business ethics as “the application of moral standards to business situations”. In this framework, consider the following questions:
1. How do you decide what is right or wrong?
2. Is there an internal mechanism or code you use?
3. Where did you learn your personal code?
