2019 OtterBox Ethics Challenge
The OtterBox Ethics Challenge is a tournament-style case challenge hosted at the College of Business. Over a month, undergraduate student teams of four prepare a written analysis of a business case that centers on a challenging ethical dilemma and compete for scholarships up to a year of free in-state tuition!

Students are allotted two weeks to prepare the case. Judges will then evaluate each case submission and select ten teams to move on to the next round. OtterBox employees will be assigned as mentors to each of the remaining ten teams. Each team will prepare a new case and winning teams will be announced at a celebration dinner.

Thanks to the generosity of Otter Products who is funding this initiative, the top scholarship for each member of the first-place team is a free year of in-state tuition at CSU! These students will be recognized as “OtterBox Ethics Scholars.”

What Can I Win?
Teams will be evaluated by a panel of judges from CSU’s College of Business, OtterBox and the business community. Each member of a placing team receives a scholarship:

First place: Scholarship sufficient to cover the student’s share of base tuition at the resident in-state level for Spring 2020 and Fall 2020.
Second place: $1,000 scholarship ($500 for Spring 2020 and $500 for Fall 2020)
Third place: $500 scholarship ($250 for Spring 2020 and $250 for Fall 2020)
With this much on the line, you’ll need to polish your game and bring your best ethical decision-making skills to the table. Competition will be fierce!

All scholarships must be used for qualified educational expenses (according to Internal Revenue Service standards) and will be allocated during the Spring 2020 and Fall 2020 semesters.
