Business Integrity, (far right in photo) piloted the first undergraduate course at
the college that embedded a formal service-learning project in
the course, Management 470: Business Integrity Capacity.

The experience was designed to enhance
classroom learning by providing services to meet community needs and to
strengthen business citizenship competencies.
The class and Dr. Petrick participated in the state and national Make a Difference
Day by contributing to the honeysuckle removal project at
Taylorsville MetroPark in the greater Dayton community. Dr.
Petrick states, “Business service-learning projects enable
future business leaders to develop good community citizenship
habits that make a positive difference in the lives of the
people around them and create a more supportive environment for
business.” Mr. Charles Shoemaker, Executive Director of Five
Rivers MetroParks, and his volunteer coordinator, Mr. Robert
Butts both expressed appreciation to Dr. Petrick, his students,
and the Raj Soin College of Business for their socially
responsible business education contributions. |
