To empirically test these claims, we surveyed 1,080 business and nonbusiness students from a major research university. The results suggest that neither the personal moral philosophies of business and nonbusiness students, nor the personal moral philosophies of business freshmen and business seniors differed significantly. Based on our results, we found no evidence to support the claims of critics who suggest business education is associated with negative personal moral philosophies of students. Further, the attitudes of business freshmen and business seniors concerning profit and sustainability differed significantly, yet in the direction opposite the one Ghoshal (2005) and others would have predicted. Thus, blaming the rash of ethical scandals on the amoral and "profits-first" theoretical underpinnings of business school training might be too simplistic of an approach.10aManagement10aStrategy & Entrepreneurship1 aNeubaum, Donald1 aPagell, Mark1 aDrexler, John1 aRyan, Fran, McKee1 aLarson, Erik  uhttps://business.oregonstate.edu/biblio/business-education-and-its-relationship-student-personal-moral-philosophies-and-attitudes-001616nas a2200169   4500008004100000245010700041210006900148260000900217300001200226490000700238520098700245653001501232653003201247100001701279700001701296856013301313       2009                        eng d00aHow Plant Managers' Experiences and Attitudes towards Sustainability Relate to Operational Performance0 aHow Plant Managers Experiences and Attitudes towards Sustainabil  c2009  a278-2990 v183 aManagers are increasingly faced with pressure to think not just about profits, but also about their organization's environmental and social performance. This research provides a first examination of operational managers' experiences with and attitudes about employee well-being and environmental issues, how these factors impact employee well-being and environmental performance, and how the three performance measures interrelate. We use violations of Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations and Toxic Release Inventory reports of emissions as proxies for employee well-being and environmental performance. Our findings suggest that operational managers do not (yet) think in sustainability terms. However, employee well-being and environmental performance do interact in a significant way with operational performance. Hence, operational managers would benefit from a more complete understanding of the relationships among the elements of the triple bottom line.10aManagement10aStrategy & Entrepreneurship1 aPagell, Mark1 aGobeli, Dave  uhttps://business.oregonstate.edu/biblio/how-plant-managers-experiences-and-attitudes-towards-sustainability-relate-operational-000697nas a2200169   4500008004100000245012200041210006900163260002200232653001500254653003200269100002000301700001800321700001700339700001700356700002100373856013300394       2006                        eng d00aBusiness education, personal moral philosophies and “profits-first” mentalities: An empirical response to critics0 aBusiness education personal moral philosophies and profitsfirst   aAltanta, GAc200610aManagement10aStrategy & Entrepreneurship1 aNeubaum, Donald1 aDrexler, John1 aLarson, Erik1 aPagell, Mark1 aMcKee-Ryan, Fran  uhttps://business.oregonstate.edu/biblio/business-education-personal-moral-philosophies-and-profits-first-mentalities-empirical-0
