MBA Oath

Does the term "business ethics" sound oxymoronic? You know, inherently contradictory and nonsensical... like jumbo shrimp.

Recent graduates of Harvard Business School, a virtual seminary for the high priests of capitalism, thought there should be another gospel beyond Gordon Gekko's "Greed is good." They campaigned for their fellow grads to take what they call the "MBA Oath." It's modeled after the medicine's Hippocratic oath of ethics.

Good luck with that
