Business Ethics Discussion

“Hacking Into Harvard”

• Read Case 2.1: Hacking into Harvard, located
  here or on page 71 in your textbook. As applicants began to defend
  themselves against the penalties handed out by the business schools, they
  appealed to both consequentialist and nonconsequentialist criteria to support
  their actions. Some responded by pointing out that their intentions were never
  malicious, while others argued they did not think checking their application
  statuses would cause any real harm. Review the case study and analyze the
  actions of the students from a Kantian perspective. Consider whether the
  actions taken by the hackers were permissible according the standard of
  universal acceptability.

****NO PLAGIARISM, THIS IS NOT A PAPER ONLY A DISCUSSION****
