Well, I never ASKED any Indian students to elucidate this case because I don't think that is a right or fair thing to do to international students -- BUT a couple of times students have had the background with Sadhus to explain what it means to be a Sadhu and the implicit trust and faith in ones fellow man involved in putting yourself at the mercy of others. It brought to the picture a perspective different from that of the McKinsey partner and his friend Stephen. I guess it is serendipitous when this happens.

Subject: Parable of Sadhu Discussion Prompts?

Colleagues,

I've begun prepping for an online business ethics course for the coming fall. I would like to include a discussion on the Parable of Sadhu (http://faculty.txwes.edu/tnichols/documents/TheParableoftheSadhu.pdf) early on. Does anyone have any discussion prompts or notes they can share on how to teach? I would appreciate any other article suggestions down this line as well.

Thank you all,
