Changes

Fordham has been named a “Changemaker Campus” by Ashoka, a global organization that honors universities for innovative efforts to foster social good and strengthen society. Additionally, according to a survey by ''Bloomberg Businessweek'', which asked respondents to rate their school from 1 (completely disagree) to 7 (completely agree) according to the statement, “My school emphasized the principles of corporate, social, and environmental responsibility”, Fordham's Gabelli School of Business had a score of 7, earning it the number 1 spot out of 83 schools. As a Jesuit institution, Fordham strongly believes in social innovation and entrepreneurship, as well as investing in the continuous development of their faculty and staff. Although Fordham has yet to pursue any policy changes to encourage more faculty entrepreneurship, the faculty lead by example, actively share their learnings and best practices, and participate in new advancing the field of social innovation and change making in higher education.
