Dr. Alfred N. and Lynn Manos Page Prize
for Sustainability Issues in Business Curricula
The Moore School of Business at the University of South Carolina is honored to announce the
inauguration of the
Alfred N. and Lynn Manos Page Prize for
Sustainability Issues in Business Curricula. The Page Prize will have two purposes: to
encourage efforts to expose business students to state-of-the-art environmental sustainability
knowledge and to demonstrate the Moore School's commitment to promoting sustainability in business
education. The school will house an associated national and international database on high-quality
teaching/curricular materials related to environmental sustainability and organizations, providing
business educators around the world with compelling materials and course and curricular designs
promoting greater understanding of this critical issue.
WHO MAY SUBMIT:Faculty, doctoral students, and others are invited to submit non-published
materials related to innovative curricula (program design and core components), courses (including
full syllabi) and/or substantial course components (e.g., case materials, simulations, etc.)
appropriate for rigorous and relevant teaching about environmental sustainability and
business.
Submissions must be original and made with the full consent of all authors for free public
access to the submitted materials for use in business education anywhere in the world.
AWARDS:Two Page Prizes will be awarded each year, beginning in the fall of 2008. One prize
will honor the best submission from faculty in the United States; the second will be awarded to the
best submission from faculty at an overseas institution. (University of South Carolina faculty may
not compete for the Page Prize, but a parallel prize will be offered to the best USC submission
through the dean’s office of the Moore School.)
Initial prizes will be $1,000 each, plus a framed print of
Aegean Sea #6 (shown above) certifying the award. Two
Honorable Mention prizes (one in each category) will also be awarded at levels of $250 each.
Winners will be chosen by a three-member USC faculty committee. A database of top submissions
each year will be made available on the Moore School’s Web site for adoption by business faculty
around the world to utilize in their home institutions.
