Yesterday, Georgetown University’s McDonough School of Business hosted a discussion around the Occupy Movement’s issues and goals and the implications for business.

Coined “Where’s the ‘I’ in Occupy?” the event was designed to give Georgetown students a platform in which to explore the issues of financial, political and social inequality raised by the protest movement that has taken hold across the nation’s cities over the past several weeks. 

McDonough Dean David Thomas began the discussion by framing the landscape upon which the Occupy issues have been founded. Event participants voted on topics to be discussed in break-out sessions, a panel discuss featured student viewpoints surrounding the Occupy Movement, the audience broke into groups to discuss themes selected by the earlier vote and the event closed with individual groups reporting back on their discussions.

The event, open to the entire Georgetown University community as well as the public, was sponsored by McDonough’s Center for Business and Public Policy and Global Social Enterprise Initiative.
