In light of this adage, \u003cem\u003eCapitalizing Knowledge\u003c\/em\u003e examines the history of Canadian business faculties in their search for professional legitimacy. As the title suggests, this volume is an overview of the development of business schools in Canadian universities. Business faculties have different characteristics; some are noted for generating management research, while others generate interaction with the business community. Some programs are famous for their MBA graduates, others for their undergraduate students. This collection of essays describes the critical events that have defined the character of these faculties and societies of business education in Canada over the course of the twentieth century. Eight universities are profiled, including Queen''s, York, and the University of Toronto. In addition, the development of the Administrative Sciences Association of Canada (ASAC) is traced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction \/ Barbara Austin -- Culture of utility : the development of business education in Canada \/ Barry E.C.
