professional students, Oath of office, Hippocratic oath, on "compassionate grounds"


Yale is moving forward with the construction of a modern housing complex for graduate and professional students.


第二,诺里亚代表着过去几年间哈佛商学院兴起的进步主义思想。诺里亚与同事拉凯什•库 拉纳(Rakesh Khurana)一起,主持了有关专业标准的讨论,提出引入一种管理上的希波克拉底誓言(Hippocratic oath)。他们在18个月前发表在英国《金融时报》上的一篇文章中辩称,对经理人提出更高期望,将会对他们产生一种纠偏性压力,“将经理人转变为社会利 益在日渐兴旺的经济企业中的代理人”。哈佛商学院鼓励许多学员追求自己版本的经理人誓言,而且在最近出版书籍中描述的MBA学员国际化运动,已如雨后春笋 般兴起。

Second, Prof Nohria is identified with the progressive thinking that has been bubbling up at HBS during the past few years. With his colleague Rakesh Khurana, he has led the discussion over professional standards, proposing the introduction of a kind of Hippocratic oath for management. In an article for the Financial Times 18 months ago, they argued that placing higher expectations on managers would exert a kind of corrective pressure on them, “turning managers into agents of society's interest in thriving economic enterprises”. Many of HBS's MBA students were encouraged to pursue their own version of an oath for managers, and an international movement of MBA students, described in a recently published book, sprang up.


"Instead of up upholding his oath of office to put the greater good of all American citizens, no matter where they live and who they voted for above all else...he decided to do the opposite," Baltimore City Council President Brandon Scott said about President Trump's criticism of the Charm City and Rep. Elijah Cummings.

An oath of office is an oath or affirmation a person takes before undertaking the duties of an office, usually a position in government or within a religious body, although such oaths are sometimes required of officers of other organizations.

The term Professional student has two uses in the university setting:
  • "Professional student" is a slang term commonly used in colleges to describe a student who stays in school for many years rather than embarking on a career. To avoid these types, some four-year colleges have imposed limits on the length of time students can be enrolled in order to open up their limited slots to new students. However, the colleges allow for demonstrated exceptions (e.g., a student who holds down a full-time occupation or has a family to raise, who is clearly demonstrating progress toward a degree). See: perpetual student.
  • A less common meaning for "Professional student" is an individual who makes a living writing papers and doing college work in exchange for pay from other people.
