The survey of businesses, sponsored by the B-School Student Association, will be sent out later this month after the S. A. approves a final draft.
John D. Pratt, a first-year MBA candidate who originally suggested the survey, said last night that the questionnaire would both "express our concern about these social issues as prospective members of the business community and gather information for people about to be recruited by these companies."
Pratt said that he got the idea of a questionnaire from the Law School, where three "Nader's raiders" organized a survey of law firms during the first week of October.
On December 4, by a 25-1 vote, the Student Association resolved "to poll major American businesses on the subject of social action and responsibility programs on behalf of the student body and to make available the results of the poll to interested students."
The mailing list, according to Pratt, will include all of the 400 firms recruiting annually at the Business School and therefore should be particularly helpful to second-year students trying to choose a job.
