Synopsis
A CBS News special that explores the controversy over the ethics of Wall Street and of the nation's business community in general. The program visits the Harvard School of Business, the Jesuit Office of Faith and Justice, and the Union Theological Seminary to examine the question of whether ethics can be taught in business schools, or indeed if a sense of right and wrong can ever be taught by any school or church, much less by an institution that serves students long after their formative years are over and which is dedicated to training them to compete in a field notorious for its celebration of such vices as dihonesty and greed.
