Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

When the United Way of Halifax Region received an unsolicited gift from a tobacco company, the organization faced a dilemma. With no formal gift acceptance policy in place, the Board of Directors had to decide whether or not they should accept the donation. This is a problem-based case study where students must decide whether or not the Board of Directors should accept the donation. Included in the case is information that supports both sides of the debate, and the reader must engage in extensive analysis and reflect on personal and organizational values before making a conclusion. The case was designed for use in a business ethics or business and society course, and would also be relevant for any business course that encompasses \nethics, social responsibility, leadership, or governance issues. ABSTRACT ONLY AVAILABLE

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
