A team from Central Wyoming College (CWC) recently won the inaugural Wyoming Collegiate Business Ethics Case Competition (WCBECC) hosted virtually by the University of Wyoming College of Business’ Daniels Fund Ethics Initiative Collegiate Program. Eight Rocky Mountain region community colleges were invited to compete.
CWC team members were sophomores Talia Atkins, studying business management and organizational leadership, from Jackson, and Alpine’s Emily Richards, studying business management. Faculty adviser Tammy Forbis, CWC instructor of business, coached the two students.
The competition is the brainchild of Kent Noble, UW’s Bill Daniels Chair of Business Ethics, and Chase Thiel, UW management associate professor and the Daniels Fund Ethics Initiative Collegiate Program Professor of Business Ethics. The goal of the event is to provide student teams a space to practice and hone their use of business ethics.
