Summary:In this essay I show that business needs business school graduates who are capable of ethical business action. Thus, business ethics courses should help students develop the capacities and skills they will need to act ethically at work.

I show how service learning in the classroom can be combined with a college honorary program to promote ethical business actions in students.
