Question:
Eagle Gate College hired an admission consultant from Stevens-Henager College (Janna Miller). After she was hired, Ms. Miller hired other employees from Steven-Henager, and some of those employees had access to a confidential database at Steven-Henager that included leads for recruiting students. Before leaving Stevens-Henager, the employees went into the college's database on leads and altered the information on the individuals in the list in such a way that it impeded or prevented Stevens-Henager's ability to contact those leads. One Stevens-Henager official said, "We continue to use any leads that come into the college from time to time, and with the loss of adequate phone numbers.it became difficult, if not impossible, to use our own leads...........
Discussion Questions
1. Evaluate the ethics of Ms. Miller in her recruitment efforts. What about the ethics of the employees in altering the database so that it could no longer be used?
2. Are there any prevention tools that might have helped the colleges from becoming involved in the resulting litigation?
