Religious Values Will Be Key to Catholic's New B-School

Catholic University of America will today announce the creation of a new School of Business and Economics that will aim to infuse the university's religious values into the business curriculum, The Wall Street Journal reported. The Roman Catholic ideas of natural law will play a key role in the undergraduate ethics course, the introductory business course will focus on the social impact of commerce, and the accounting will focus on the ethics involved. "Business is supposed to be a service to society," said Andrew Abela, chair of the business and economics program, which is being elevated to a school.
