Forward Together

PRiME Competition 2020

For the second time, we brought the vision and spirit of the global Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME) into our local school-wide initiative aiming to build awareness of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through our School of Management PRiME Competition!

Our PRiME competition is part of the Cal Lutheran Festival of Scholars Week which stands for excellence in teaching and learning where we proudly showcase our students’ work. Traditionally student showcase their projects in-person, however, this year in the midst of the competition's entry process, the global crisis caused by Covid-19 brought disruption and challenged us in so many ways. But we stayed strong and committed to bringing the same level of competition, quality of projects and judging for the students, but just virtually! In the end, the competition made a significant global impact!
