Higher Education and Business Standards

Higher Education and Business Standards, written by Willard E. Hotchkiss in the early 20th century, examines the relationship between higher education and evolving business practices. Hotchkiss advocates for a curriculum that emphasizes moral responsibility and social awareness, arguing that future business leaders must understand the broader implications of their roles in society. He critiques the historical short-term mentality in American business and calls for an educational framework that integrates scientific methods with ethical considerations, promoting a balance between efficiency and societal well-being.
