The relationship of public involvement to continued funding is particularly important for public sector hatcheries, most of which often understand the importance of education and include outreach in their scheduled activities. However, private sector hatcheries can also find that their participation in educational projects yields beneficial publicity and gains support for their industry by diffusing the knowledge about their operations and the resulting products. This can help them find investors as their business or overall industry expands and can provide a continuing source of new employees from the students who participate in projects or programs. 

But some feel that the best information should not be free, namely, the online brokerages. As such, these transaction providers have substantial content on their sites that seeks to educate investors, but beware Their goal is to have you open an account (i.e., buy or sell).

Because bonds typically have a predictable stream of payments of interest and repayment of principal, many people invest in them to receive interest income or to preserve and to accumulate capital. If you are looking for current income, you will most likely be interested in bonds that pay an interest rate that stays fixed until maturity with interest that is paid semiannually. However, if you are saving for retirement or a child s education or other capital accumulation goal, you may wish to consider investing in zero coupon bonds which do not have periodic interest payments. Instead, they are sold at a substantial discount from their face amount and the investor receives one payment— at maturity—that is equal to the purchase price (principal) plus the total interest earned, compounded semiannually at the original interest rate. 

As corrupt business and construction practices are the norm in some environments, students must learn not only that there are differences in what is considered acceptable practice they must also learn how to intellectually critique dubious ethical norms. We expect that exploration for and demonstration of universal and/or ubiquitous moral values will be an important component in international ethics education. One of the examples is the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) (Baker 2004). CSR focuses on accountability of organizations to a broad group of stakeholders including employees, customers, suppliers, community organizations, subsidiaries and affiliates, joint venture partners, investors and shareholders. CSR policies are based on social justice principles, human rights, and environmental standards. CSR can make our science, engineering and management students better understand that we do not inherit the earth from our ancestors we borrow it from our children - a Native American proverb. Balanced evaluations are necessary.
