	abstract = {Critics of business education (e.g., Ghoshal, 2005; Mitroff, 2004) place much of the blame for recent ethical scandals on the lack of moral development of managers and the amoral, "profits-first" theoretical underpinnings of business education. 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.},

	abstract = {Managers are increasingly faced with pressure to think not just about profits, but also about their organization{\textquoteright}s environmental and social performance. This research provides a first examination of operational managers{\textquoteright} 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.},
