About The Club
Mission: Raise Awareness - Connect - Educate
The Responsible Business Club's primary, three-part mission is to foster greater awareness
and commitment from all members of the School community to ethical business practice and to
the conducting of business in a socially and environmentally responsible way. The Club
invites influential and inspirational guest speakers to campus and holds a 'Responsible
Careers Conference' each Spring.
The Club also acts as a forum to bring together those students
intending to found or join social/environmental enterprises (either for profit or
not-for-profit) and additionally works with School faculty and programme administration on
curriculum change.
