The terms "family man" and "business man" are coined as polar opposites, as if a professional career means the abandonment of other core values in societal human beings. Like the horror scenes straight out of The Devil Wears Prada, business forces us to choose between: our friends and our job; our professional progress and our family; our career success and our morals. But this isn't the way business has to be. Ethical business degrees, particularly ethical MBA programs, are cropping up from the crevices of our colleges and universities to bring the best of both worlds under one umbrella. Through these "ethical MBAs," business professionals may establish fruitful careers on top of a foundation of education that interweaves ethics into each and every class, instead of that one estranged ethics course that was jam-packed into the General Eds. The question becomes, then: how do these ethical business degrees hold up to the actual wear-and-tear of the business world?]]> http://blog.degreesinbusiness.org/2009/10/06/the-ten-benefits-of-ethical-business-degrees/feed/ 1 http://blog.degreesinbusiness.org/2009/09/18/hispanic-and-minority-distance-learners-rejoice-for-saint-leo-university/ http://blog.degreesinbusiness.org/2009/09/18/hispanic-and-minority-distance-learners-rejoice-for-saint-leo-university/#comments Fri, 18 Sep 2009 22:48:31 +0000 Kourtnie McKenzie http://blog.degreesinbusiness.org/?p=253 Hispanic Business released a Top 10 Business Schools for Hispanic Students. This list, unfortunately, does not include online schools. While these schools have online class potential, a full-scale online degree program is better obtained through universities that have designed degree programs with the distance learner in mind. One of the most prestigious online schools for business degrees like Business Administration and Criminal Justice is Saint Leo University.While Saint Leo University might not have been featured on the Top 10 Business Schools for Hispanic Students from Hispanic Business, it was featured on the Top 100 Degrees for Minorities at Diverse Issues in Higher Education, and the Top 100 Degrees for African-Americans. Saint Leo University's student body is diverse and spread across both the Center for Online Learning--their distance learning programs--and traditional, campus-based programs that have been succeeding for ages.]]> http://blog.degreesinbusiness.org/2009/09/18/hispanic-and-minority-distance-learners-rejoice-for-saint-leo-university/feed/ 2 http://blog.degreesinbusiness.org/2009/09/01/business-school-or-graduate-school-where-should-you-get-your-mba/ http://blog.degreesinbusiness.org/2009/09/01/business-school-or-graduate-school-where-should-you-get-your-mba/#comments Tue, 01 Sep 2009 16:40:27 +0000 Kourtnie McKenzie http://blog.degreesinbusiness.org/?p=247 Getting into a business school could mean learning the ropes. Just like how there are resume tips for applying to a job, there are GMAT and business college application tips for getting into college. And just like how there are companies that specifically offer resume sprucing services, there are MBA admissions consultants. An MBA admissions consultant's advises prospective students on the MBA admissions process. This does not necessarily have to come with a price; you could follow the blogs of an MBA consultant and learn a wealth of knowledge simply from the online resources available. These resources are crucial for finding out the ins-and-outs of the MBA application process.]]> http://blog.degreesinbusiness.org/2009/09/01/business-school-or-graduate-school-where-should-you-get-your-mba/feed/ 1 http://blog.degreesinbusiness.org/2009/07/23/gmat-a-quick-guide/ http://blog.degreesinbusiness.org/2009/07/23/gmat-a-quick-guide/#comments Thu, 23 Jul 2009 20:42:34 +0000 Kourtnie McKenzie http://blog.degreesinbusiness.org/?p=209 free practice examinations.
