What are some innovative approaches that can be used to teach ethics at the university level? Academics who have toiled thanklessly in the field of business ethics now marvel at their recent popularity on campus. “It’s been unbelievable,” says Timothy Fort, a professor at George Washington University. “When I started teaching an ethics class in 1994, the first third of the class was spent convincing students that it was worth taking. Now the class size has quadrupled” Part of the appetite for ethics courses has grown because of a mandate from the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business. In 2004, the AACSS issued a report that acknowledged the embarrassment felt throughout the business school community following the exposure of accounting frauds at Enron, Tyco, WorldCom, and elsewhere. The report urged business schools to do more to teach ethics in the classroom.
