    It may seem like an oxymoron, but faculty administrators at even research universities can be hopelessly narrow-minded regarding knowledge and how it is to be conveyed. For example, how often are faculty members encouraged to give a lecture or two re-teaching material largely missed on exams (followed by another, shorter examination on that material)? Do faculty administrators work with faculty members in professional schools to see to it that the applied courses are not severed from their basic (i.e., more theoretical substratum) discipline? One of the secrets in the “sauce” at Yale’s professional schools (e.g., Law, Divinity, etc.) is this salience of the respective basic disciplines (e.g., political theory and theology, respectively). Synergy comes gushing through once the false dichotomy is recognized. Before I went to Yale, I was a masters and doctoral student at the University of Pittsburgh, where the dichotomy was alive and well in the university’s social reality; I had to “walk back” the dichotomy myself as I discovered philosophy (and religious studies) while I was still studying business.

    Ethical Theory in Business Ethics Courses

    It may seem like an oxymoron, but faculty administrators at even research universities can be hopelessly
    narrow-minded regarding knowledge and how it is to be conveyed. For example, how often are faculty
    members encouraged to give a lecture or two re-teaching material largely missed on exams (followed by
    another, shorter examination on that material)? Do faculty administrators work with faculty members in
    professional schools to see to it that the applied courses are not severed from their basic (i.e., more
    theoretical substratum) discipline? One of the secrets in the sauce at Yales professional schools (e.g.,
    Law, Divinity, etc.) is this salience of the respective basic disciplines (e.g., political theory and theology,
    respectively). Synergy comes gushing through once the false dichotomy is recognized. Before I went to
    Yale, I was a masters and doctoral student at the University of Pittsburgh, where the dichotomy was
    alive and well in the universitys social reality; I had to walk back the dichotomy myself as I discovered
    philosophy (and religious studies) while I was still studying business.
