Oxford Saïd Hosts Lively Debate On Corporate Responsibility

As part of its annual MBA Launch program, Oxford University’s Saïd Business School recently hosted a debate between faculty members that addressed whether corporations are responsible for practicing social responsibility as part of their business models.

Oxford alumni accompanied debaters Oren Sussman, Reader in Finance, and Richard Barker, Professor of Accounting in the discussion. Sussman’s assertion was that corporations should use their resources to focus on making money rather than filter them into working toward change in areas such as the climate crisis and social inequality. Barker’s team held the opposing opinion that while corporations should obviously function for profit, responsibility toward such societal issues can and should be integrated into their practices to achieve a greater goal.

Average GMAT Up, Percentage of Women, Minorities, International Students Down at Stanford GSB

This post has been republished in its entirety from original source clearadmit.com.

Stanford Graduate School of Business (GSB) this week released its Class of 2017 profile, revealing the highest average GMAT score—733—of all leading business schools. It’s just a one-point gain over last year for the Palo Alto school, but enough nonetheless to stay in front of the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School, where the average this year was 732. The average undergraduate GPA for the incoming class at Stanford GSB also was a record setter at 3.75—perhaps part of what led the Admissions Committee to add that component to its publicly shared profile statistics for the first time this year.

As it does each year, the school noted that especially given its smaller class size, “even two students can, and do, create” variations in percentages in the overall profile, This year, those variations included dips in the percentage of women (40 percent this year, down from 42 percent last year), minorities (19 percent, down from 23) and international students (40 percent, down from 44).

But does the same hold true for MBA programs, particularly when many MBA applicants have very specific goals and needs?
