“Call for Students to Boycott A.I.B. School Bank”

press release
Tuesday January 20, 2009 09:33 by Mark C - Campaign for Commerical-Free Education
Every area of business is getting in on the act: targetting students, that captive audience of impressionables. In this latest attempt, AIB asks students to build a bank in their school, and of course AIB will give the students all the help they need. (Campaign for Comercial-Free Education (CCFE) does not think the banks are in the best position to be giving financial advice at the moment.) The Campaign for Commercial-Free Education has called on second-level students to boycott the AIB’s “Build a Bank Challenge” which it describes as the exploitative colonization of school space at a time when Irish banks have disgraced themselves and endangered the entire economy through their reckless business practices. |
