Letter from the Dean – November 2021 Corporate Social Responsibility Edition

Dean's Letter

Welcome to Boston Hospitality Review: Corporate Social Responsibility Edition

In this era of being “woke,” the wake-up call for change cannot be ignored. We have reached a crisis point on many critical issues. There’s no snooze button that will allow us to rest any longer. Timely and important, this special edition on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), edited by Manisha Singal, Ph.D., Pamplin College of Business at Virginia Tech, and Seoki Lee, Ph.D., School of Hospitality Management at Pennsylvania State University, requires your attention. As daunting as the challenges ahead may seem, you will find within these pages, the spark reignited to reimagine, repair, and rebuild our industry. Rise and shine and get a move on! 

After reading this issue, I urge you to consider what changes you (and your business) will make to help create a more hospitable world. As always, we are interested in your feedback and recommendations. Email us at bhr@bu.edu.

Sincerely,

Arun Upneja, Ph.D.

Dean of Boston University School of Hospitality Administration
