Wal-Mart: A College Curriculum
This curriculum was written by Elizabeth Cohn and published by Wal-Mart Watch (www.walmartwatch.com), a campaign of the Center for Community & Corporate Ethics. The Center was established in January 2005 to study the impact of large corporations on society and develop a set of standards for responsible corporate behavior.
“Wal-Mart: A College Curriculum” is a 37-page, multi-disciplinary curriculum designed for college and university professors to incorporate into their undergraduate courses. The material is structured not as an integrated course curriculum, but rather as a series of five modules that allow faculty to select the parts that pertain to their own areas of teaching. Over 70 readings offer a variety of perspectives – some supportive of Wal-Mart and others critical. The curriculum also includes introductions to each module, discussion questions based on the readings and suggested assignments.
