Abstract
The mission of our higher education institutions is to produce global citizens with the skills to contribute to a diverse and complex world in the 21st century. The objective, from a governance perspective, is to reconcile the priorities of the institutions with the social and economic objectives of society. This article examines the central elements of corporate social responsibility (CSR) for academic institutions, whether public or private, articulating in concrete terms what CSR means in practice for the higher education system. As academic dishonesty and corporate corruption continue to rise to record levels around the world, the nature of CSR needs to be considered in this context. A global commitment to academic honesty in the service of public integrity is essential in this regard. Some of the best practices in CSR are discussed with the aim of creating and maintaining a system of academic institutions that are sustainable, responsive to external demands and accountable for the results they produce.
