UVA's Bicentennial Stories initiative from WTJU 91.1 FM tells our collective story. It helps us understand our shared history and make meaning in the University today. And as we look ahead, these stories help us shape the future of the University and our role in a democratic society.

“Over the years I’ve taught in a number of different areas. And I have taught and will continue to teach a class called Business Ethics Through Literature.
“Businesses have a greater ability to shape the world than I think people who are employees or people that work in certain other structures. And so given that, the course creates opportunities, through the novels and short stories, to bring out a greater emphasis and understanding on issues of power, issues of gender, race, class, nationality, that don’t find their way into the traditional case study. But are important things for people who are going to lead people in organizations to think about and be aware of.”
