The Voluntary Sector as the Ethical Sector

Chapter Chapter Ten in The Nonprofit Challenge, 2010, pp 185-211 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract On Saturday, November 16, 1940, Cornell University’s football team was in Hanover, New Hampshire, to play Dartmouth. Cornell was then ranked second in the nation by the Associated Press and was counting on a win that day, as well as one the following week, to earn a national college title. Cornell had won its prior 18 games. The stop at Dartmouth was a formality, really; its record to date that year was 3–4, and the team came into the game as 15 to 1 underdogs. On a messy, frozen field, in a grueling game in which Dartmouth held Cornell scoreless until the fourth quarter, Cornell finally tossed a touchdown pass in the final moments to win 7–3.
