responsibility available to millions of consumers, investors, policy makers and

to buy or where to invest their money. Corporations are encouraged by those choices to
continue to use their extensive financial and social resources for positive change.

are usually college students or recent graduates, but all interested are encouraged to

incentives for superior corporate responsibility performance. Corporate responsibility
issue areas analyzed by CEP include the following: environment, women's advancement,
minority advancement, charitable giving, community outreach, family benefits, workplace
issues, social disclosure, international sourcing, military contracts, and animal testing.
