Purpose
The Daniels Fund Ethics Initiative Collegiate Program extends beyond philosophy and theory to the real-world practical application of ethical principles as a framework for personal and organizational decision-making and leadership.
We believe that ethics education must convey that principles are stable foundations — not relative to a specific situation — and that doing what is right prevails over self-interest when the two may appear to be in conflict. The Collegiate Program works to integrate ethics instruction throughout the curriculum, including practical applications, involve exposure to business practitioners, and maintain relevance to the ever-changing business environment.

The Collegiate Program is anchored in the partner schools, and each school is responsible for designing and implementing the Collegiate Program on their campus to advance these defined objectives:
