September 27, 2007 Business-Ethics Week at Culver-Stockton College The second annual "Business-Ethics Week" at Culver-Stockton will be October 1-5.  "As a part of our ongoing commitment to prepare students for life's inevitable ethical dilemmas, Culver-Stockton College has planned an annual program devoted to business ethics," according to Dell Ann Janney, chair of the Business Division. Students are invited to attend the Business Leadership Exchange featuring Quincy Mayor John Spring, who deals with concepts of business ethics frequently in local government affairs. "Although our faculty integrate business ethics content into the curriculum throughout the year, next week provides an opportunity to emphasize ethical issues in every business course and allows students to recognize the myriad of ethical situations that will be encountered in the workplace," Janney added. "To conclude the week, Mayor Spring will be the keynote speaker as a part of the Business Leadership Exchange." Faculty from the business division have other activities planned throughout the week to reinforce the concept of ethics.
