Abstract

This chapter provides the reader with the following: 1) background on the numerous calls for the incorporation of sustainability topics into the college level accounting curriculums; 2) evidence that these calls have been largely neglected; and 3) further evidence for how the business community, regulators, and other professional organizations are demonstrating both the desire, and the need for, sustainability knowledge in our graduates. The intent is to support the belief that more higher education institutions (HEI) will indeed increase their incorporation of sustainability topics into their accounting curriculum.
