The main characters of Macbeth by William Shakespeare commit terrible crimes throughout the play. These crimes, which include treason and even murder, allow the character who commit them to come into great wealth and acclaim. Macbeth and Lady Macbeth become king and queen of Scotland through their deplorable acts. But do the ends justify the means? Are their crimes justified if they have a positive result? The answer is a clear no. A crime as extreme as murder is very rarely justifiable.…
Hey Anna – That’s some pretty intense research on Ben&Jerry’s philanthropic efforts. To answer your question on other industries that might be have incorporated such social conscious business model, I find WarbyParker (www.warbyparker.com) doing an extraordinary job. Their business idea also started with a problem similar to TOMSs. The company was a startup, by a group of students, one of who lost a pair of glasses on a backpacking trip. The extremely high cost of replacement of the prescription…
" Another example of this is, "A D.J. spins tunes between clothing racks." This makes readers feel like they were there. A final example of this being a firsthand account is, "... on a plaza somewhere between the free Pepsi truck and the free Ben & Jerry's ice cream wagon..." This could not have been made up. She put in these details to make it a better profile.…
It all started with Ben & Jerry’s that fateful night in June. AnneMarie strutted over while the gang was busy solving mysteries and playing cards on the grass outside the dorm building. Beaming eyes portrayed to the gang a tale of risk. Or perhaps just a tale of delight when the goodies lounging in the white plastic bag she held were revealed, though this all went unnoticed by me. The game at hand had me enraptured until one ear became deaf from a shriek of glee. Glancing up and trying to…

Right as I was given the assignment (community reach), I knew exactly what I wanted to do to complete it. For this project, I had to spend 2-3 hours with an individual with a severe disability. After hearing that, I knew whom I would spend my time with. I’ve known a set of twin with a severe disability for about threes years, so I thought I could use both of them for this project. The set of twins named, Tom and Jerry, have severe autism and are nonverbal. They are on the higher spectrum on the…

White Dog Café is a living testament to all three of those principles and Wicks is making an impact and a profit. Although, one must be careful when treading with the firm in the deep of societal responsibility as evidenced by the buyout of Ben and Jerry's and the Body Shop. As long as you are making money and managing your firm in a way that increases shareholder value—be a altruistic and giving as you want, but misstep and you are out. There is no mechanical panacea for the execution of…
The day began as Maya, Tasmeem, Hannah, Mary, Sadie, and I got into my car and jammed out to music all the way to St. Louis. As we approached the Loop, I could definitely tell we were in a very wealthy neighborhood which was indicated by the humongous mansions we saw. After parking at Starbucks Sarah and I went to the farmer's market in search of food. Since neither of us had been to the Loop and were in the spirit of trying new things, we purchased Chili Pumpkin Seed Chocolate to eat, and the…
best friend (myself). Thank you all for attending this funeral. There will be a party at her son's (Javon) house for all of you idiots who are heartless and don't care for her. Everyone else come to my house so we can all wallow together with Ben and Jerry's ice…
