Thank you to all the competitors. For the 22nd year, student teams from 25 colleges and universities came together to collaboratively analyze, present, and respond to a thought-provoking business ethics case. This case is carefully crafted to mirror the ethical dilemmas professionals may encounter in their future careers, making it a valuable learning experience for all participants.
The Collegiate Ethics Case Competition would not be possible without the generous support of its sponsors: South32, Vantage West Credit Union, and the HS Lopez Family Foundation, along with Vanguard and McGraw Hill.
