An interesting quote
The typical comment is that what's important is getting the job done. How you get it done is less important," McCabe said. "You'll have business students saying all I'm doing is emulating the behavior I'll need when I get out in the real world.
Oh, what has the world come to? Is this really the case?

you sound almost surprised. come on now. welcome to the real world.
This doesn't shock me, but it is sad. Part of the issue, in my opinion, is that the concept of "morality" is such a political football as to have lost all meaning. It's hard for schools to impart why you should be "moral" when politicians are using the word to support budget schemes, criminal punishments, and anti-gay political platforms. Kind of muddies the water a bit.
I've cheated... Hell yeah... Rules and Laws are there to protect the weak...
