Summarizing social theorist Max Weber’s classicconcepts of bureaucratic organizations, Gorman and Mosseri [2] write: In the prototypical bureaucratic organization, work is divided into well‐defined, nonoverlapping jobs that remain fixed for substantial periods of time. The performance of work is governed by written rules specifying the appropriate way to handle different categories of situations, so that workers' individual discretion is limited. Each role reports to a superior one in a

On the one hand, itis notable that at least one interviewee was able to provide a fairly nuanced comparison of thetwo concepts, describing morality as “more of a personal thing” and ethics as “more of a codifiedstandard.” On the other hand, only a few students even attempted this delineation, and those whodid typically fell short of a satisfactory response.
