About 250 students from each of the Irving school district?s four high schools and eight middle schools will learn about business ethics today. They will attend a seminar put on by Dr. Paul Melendez from the University of Arizona?s Center for Leadership Ethics. The University of Dallas is hosting the event.
Funding for the program will come primarily from La Buena Vida Foundation, but the Irving ISD, the YMCA and some local businesses and business leaders also are contributing. Attorney Frank Boyles is chairman of the program and said he hopes to make this an annual event.
The program will start with Dr. Melendez presenting an ethical decision making model. Then three case studies will be presented with some interaction with the students: a Facebook case, a case based on the game Grand Theft Auto and an underwater mortgage case. Included in the third case will be a professional panel comprised of the following: Jacqueline R. Peterson , attorney, Office of the General Counsel, Hewlett-Packard Company (she currently serves as its Global Anti-Corruption Attorney and Director, Ethics & Compliance, Americas); Areya Holder, attorney and Department of Justice Chapter 7 panel trustee for the northern district of Texas (she also has a private bankruptcy practice); and C. D. Heinen, senior vice president at Texas Security Bank (he?s been in the banking business in the Dallas area since 1974).
