Capitalizing onbySueGumz

increasing competition In international business educa­ tion and Thunderblrd's lack of endowment have raised con­ cern about the future of the Institution. I don't think It Is enough that we survive, why not strive to excel? Recent evaluation by the Academic Board of Visitors and the World Business Advisory Council, as well as by those who arc affiliated with the school focuses repeatedly on the same Issues. The overwhelming sense Is that there are many positive things taking place here, but that we are not realizing our potential — that we are sitting on a gold mine. Let's consider our Internationalism and human resources.

The American Association of Collegiate Schools of Business < AACSB) chose to convene on Thunderblrd's cam­ pus to discuss Internationalizing business education. Drs. Paul Dickie and Carl Freer were among the speakers to ad­ dress the group. Dr. Dickie spoke about materials available to teach business courses from a global perspective, and l)r Frcar on Internationalizing faculty. In an Interview afterward, Or. Frear said, "This Is the next generation of the development of business schools — Internatlonallza- tlon." Dr. Dickie admitted that finding good textbooks and other materials to teach business Internationally Is not easy. "The Wall Street Journal Is doing a better job than many of our textbooks, devoting several pages dally to in­ ternational business," he said.

In many cases, notably money and banking, the entire textbook discusses the U.S. system, and a final scanty chapter mentions some International considerations.

The International perspective Is not something to be at­ tached to the domestic one. It Is an analytical view of its own. Its underlying assumptions are different — that labor and capital arc sourced from all over the world, that the world Is the market.

Compared to traditional business education, this Is a radical concept, yet clearly the one of the future. If there truly is a Thunderblrd mystique — something that sets us apart — it should be this global perspective. We must con­ stantly remind ourselves that there Is more to our business education than accounting problems and multiple regres­ sions. These details, if we are not careful, can obscure the (ask we are really working on — the development of this in­ ternationalism.

But we are forgetting, it Is discouraging to note how few students actually talk about what they are learning. Discus­ sion about international politics and economics more often than not gives way to "how long It took to do the Fx pro­ blems." I sometimes wonder how much of this Is com­ pounded by a sort of "revolving door" situation, where most students spend two semesters getting a footing and

May 1.1984—DAS TOR—3

Internationalismthe third getting a job. All of this contributes to a certain superficiality and detachment. It makes events like the Bizarre Blzaar all the more noteworthy for their excep­ tionality.

The school must constantly reaffirm Its commitment to Internationalism — reflected In curriculum and materials used — and also must dedicate Itself to developing a greater Integrity and sense of belonging at school. 1C we are not careful, three semesters here could degenerate Into a * collection of short-term projects and a series of parties on . the quad. !

This Is not a proposal to "rah-rah" the mystique. It means real assimilation Into a global perspective, which would create a much larger common denominator among us; and what about greater utilization of students as a resource?

There Is real concern about the way the school is being marketed, and what long-term strategy. If any, exists. ••This Is a unique place — it had to be sold as unique, not as a poor cousin of a more affluent business school. We are the best school of this kind In the country," said one astute observer. Why not make a long-term marketing plan of the school a special WB 550 project or an Internship?

This same principle could be gainfully employed to fund raising. Some students here study insurance, and life- insurance Is making a comeback as a fund raising tool. Why not offer an Internship to a student to develop an Insurance program for the school to sell to students and alumni, nam­ ing the school as beneficiary. According to a recent article In Fund Halting Management, Duke University Is very suc- cesfully employing this technique. A wide range Of premiums are available, some as low as $3/month; It could be presented as buying a share In the school.

But the "buying a share" concept could be applied to a more exciting proposal. Carelton College, in Northfleld Minnesota, has developed a successful program called a pooled Income fund. It Is In fact like a mutual fund, an In­ vestment portfolio which contributors Invest In, and earn proceeds from. A number of students here have experience In this area, and could perhaps arrange an Internship to help manage the portfolio. For many of us, It would be our first such investment opportunity, and I have little doubt that as alumni we would continue to invest In this, partly for financial reasons, and partly because It would keep us In contact with the school.

In terms of human resources and experience In the quick­ ly developing area of International business, Thunderblrd holds a tremendous advantage. Let's not squander the op­ portunity.

CAMPUS NOTES

OmbudsmanItem I: "We don't have enough money to buy com­ puters, so no way should we resurface the tennis courts..."

...If It came down to FOR AD students working their pro­ blem* on an abacus we would still have to resurface the tennis courts. They were built seven years ago at a cost of $75,000 The need to resurface after such time (at • cost per court of f 1500) Is a simple fact; maintain the

surface or lose the Invest­ ment. There were no ulterior motives. Dr. Voris doesn't entertain prospective donors on his favourite court. He on­ ly plays with students there. Guests are taken to the B lit more or Wigwam Tennis Clubs. Moreover, the $4,400 spent this year didn't come out of the computer budget. The cost of resurfacing was completely covered by the campus washer/dryer revenue.

Relative to actual student eompouler access need, there has been, Is. and at

Alum Finds Niche in Japanese Firm

Associated PressTOKYO and Japanese companies, particularly In the In­

ternational marketing and public-relations fields, are fin­ ding out that foreigners can do more than teach English.

More frequently, foreigner! such as Cecllla Koemer, 29, , of Bedford, Mlch , David Snook, a 28-year-old from St. ' Paul, Mlnn , and Virginia Kouyoumdjlan. from London, are finding niches In Japanese firms that once thought non- Japanese never could overcome Japan's cultural and language barriers

Roemer works In the personnel-recruitment section of Selyu Ltd., a food-processing and retail business that Is part of the multinational Seibu conglomerate. She was one of 12 bilingual applicants chosen In a program begun a year and a half ago to hire more foreigners.

The Selbu program was the first to hire foreigners as regular full-time employees and not on year-to-year con­ tracts, according to Roemer.

The foreigners have the same wage, vacation and promo­ tion scales as their Japanese co-workers. The corporation Is planning to hire IS more foreigners next year to work as In­ ternational merchandise buyers, public-relations officials and financial and market analysts, she said.

The Idea behind the program - to Internationalize the company and eliminate the need for Interpreters and local­ ly hired go-betweens In overseas operations • has caught the attention of several other Japanese companies that have asked Selbu how to start similar programs, Roemer said.

Information about openings are sent to about 100 univer­ sities In the United States and elsewhere. The response has been good, Roemer said, due partly to the "big boom In East Asian studies on American campuses."

Foreigners must be prepared for changes In living and working styles, she said. Particularly frustrating are the Japanese Insistence on working long hours and the demand for unanimous aproval of even the smallest decisions, she Mid.

Snook, who works for Brldgestone Tire Co., said, "My Number I desire out of Thunderblrd (American Graduate School of International Management In Glendalei was to get hired by an American manufacturer, get sent here on expatriate benefits and live like a king."

Working In Brldgestone's public-relations section was "second choice," the former English teacher said.

least through I98S, will be adequate funds In the data processing budget. Ac­ cording to budget figures furnished by C,L, Stlckland. Jr., Vice President Business Affairs, 17 percent <$:H,274) of the 1963/84 budget for Capital Improvements (discretionary capital) was spent on the new computer main frame, a fact that often goes unnoticed in the heat of the current debate. This was a required purchase because the existing main frame couldn't have handled 10 new terminals without significantly reducing response time. The need for these added terminals Is still In question. Consider, for ex­ ample, that since April 1 through April 24, during only 5 of the 576 computer hours

logged were all 8 terminals In use. That's full use less than I percent of the time.

Some think Dr. Vorls reneged on his October 1983 promise to deliver new ter­ minals by the following year. His "next year" was not the calendar year starting Jan. 1, but rather the fiscal year starting July 1, (quite ap­ propriate considering the budget topic). Indeed, 10 new terminals and two addi­ tional megabytes of memory capacity will be delivered to the school by the end of the summer wsslon

Again, data processing received priority funding In the 1984/85 budget for capital Improvements This Item has moved from the third largest expenditure In 83/84 to the second largest In 84/85 standing only behind the library acquisitions In light of the gradual gearing up for the Fall of 1984 when a basic computer course (MIS.) will be mandatory, the pur­ chase scheduling has been timely, consistent and com­ plete.KD/TOH'S NOTK: Referr­ ing to the Ihinl paragraph Of this article Or. Vorls has In­ formed thi- Das Tor editor that by tils promise to deliver terminals "next year" he <1id Indeed mean January or February ol 1984.

Unlike Roemer, he was hired on a three-year contract and Is not considered a regular employee. He earns a higher salary than his Japanese peers and is not allowed to be a member of the union.

He doesn't want to stay He has other plans:The more of a Japan specialist I become, the more In de­

mand I will be by American companies who want to use my language skills and knowledge of Japan and the way It works."

Keeping this In mind, Snook, who calls himself "not the conformist type," said he was willing to '.wallow" life at Brldgestone, which includes living In a small room In a company dormitory and following procedures that seem, to him. Inefficient.

"Efficiency Is not a real strong point of any Japanese of­ fice, if you ask me," Snook said, "because decisions take so long. You've got to get the consensus of everyone involv­ ed... You've got to preserve the harmony."

After three years at the world s largest magnetic-tape firm, she has just negotiated her freedom from dishwashing and tea serving - traditional duties for female employees - but she must wear the blue suit that Is the uniform of. every woman who works for the company.

MORECAMPUS NOTES ——————Government Aid to Work Study Tripled

The U.S. government has tripled Its contribution to the Federal College Work Study Program at Thunderblrd for 1084. This means more Jobs and aid will be available to those students who qualify. Most of these positions will pro­ bably be In academic departments, said Louise Glfford, Director of Financial Aid.

The government provides 80 percent of work study aid, while the school Itself foots the other 20 percent.

In 1983 a total of $26,000 was provided to students - $20.000 from the government and $5,200 from Thunderblrd, In 1984 the total amount of aid will come to $30,000 with 116,000 be­ ing provided by the school and $64,000 being kicked In by the government.

Students In the work study program receive a minimum hourly wage for up to 20 hours a week of work as well as financial aid allocated in a lump sum each semester ac­ cording to need. Applications are available In the Financial Aid of flee.

Elections CommitteeApplications are available In the ASLC for those In­

Acid Rain: A Short Story by Bill BettsThe doctor rushed Into the room as the nurse was fran­

tically adjusting the respirator. He grabbed a syringe from the pocket of his lab coat and administered a potent ln)ec lion of chemical stimulant. The boy's body went rigid as the drug hit him and his vital signs soared to an equally dangerous level The emergency over, almost as quickly as II began, the doctor left the room leaving Nurse Shulman to make sure that the boy would be alright

Jeff Colton was seventeen years old, too young to be lay­ ing In a hospital (><•(! wired to a bunch of machines, Jeff andhlS friends Were typical of mlddiecU*s suburbia, and t>yhigh school, partying had become commonplace to them 1-ast Friday nigh! had been just another after game party. Ills best friend, (»rcg Bordcn, had gotten a (ew hits of micro-dot, and they they'd gone out drinking Unfortunate­ ly the acid was a bit stronger than they had counted on The mixture of beer and acid had hit Jeff hard, and with the speed he had eaten before the game It had almost finished him off. At two o'clock Saturday morning he was rushed In­ to the emergency room of Boston Memorial Hospital with extreme convulsions and then quickly lapsed Into a coma

That was four days ago Occasionally he was wrenched Irom his drugged sleep by the terrors of chemically induced nightmares The prognostic was not good, the exact mix­ ture of chemicals was not known

Th« soft warmth of an early June day drifted through the open window and across the bed where Jeff Colton lay The pale face of the boy almost rnatchr j the sterile whiteness of the room, and the constant pin* of the KKU was the only sound which broke the hushed silence of the boy's breathing The tubes and wires which served as lifelines for the blond youth seamed almost out of place In the warm sun of the laic afternoon

Mr and Mrs Colton were walking up the hall as t)r Lange emerged from Jeff's room

Mrs Colton half ran the short distance between herself and the doctor Doctor, how Is my son 1*", she asked with a look of desperate hope in her eyes She and her husband had been coming to the hospital twice a day. once In the morn- Ing, once in the evening, since the ordeal had begun.

"I'm afraid the situation doesn't look good Mrs Colton We've just pulled him out of another depression, he's hav­ ing trouble maintaining the vital functions " He said this honestly, but with a true note of concern He knew they were afraid of losing their only child

"Is there nothing you can do?" Hay Colton had Joined his wife by now They both looked tired, the past four days had been hard on them.

"I'm sorry We just have to let him ride it out Jeff's the one who has to do It We can do no more than help maintain his vital functions until he comes out of the coma " Though It held little hope, the doctor's voice was still reassuring "He's stable now. You can go in and see him If you'd like " He smiled and nodded as he turned to finish his rounds and his shoes clicked on the tile floor as he walked down the cold, sterile hall

Though his body lay still, (he boy's mind raced In an acid rain. With the conscious sealed in coma, the chemicals con­ jured up vivid dreams to delight and terrify the sub conscious, dreams which the boy was helpless against

"Hey Greg. I'm gonna run this baby:" Jeff cried In delight as he gazed at the car which he and Greg had work­ ed so hard on. "You time me to the top of that hill and back." He got behind the wheel and anxiously brought the engine to life.

The hot August sun heat down on the road as the boy and machine picked up speed on the long, low hill. The wind tousled his blond hair as he became one with the car, his

adrenaline pumping as the road raced under his wheels."Man this Is great.' he thought as he slammed the car Into

a spin at the crest of the hill Now I'm really gonna show him' He rammed the accelerator to the floor, wheels spinn­ ing, leaving a cloud of blue-grey smoke to mark his starting point The needle on the speedometer swept In a wide and easy arc as the car dared to become airborne.

His eyes narrowed In the bright sun as the feeling of raw mechanical power engulfed him. He eased his foot from thegas to the brake as he began lo appt«ach his Irlcnd at »heend of the road As he climbed from the car. the feeling of exhilaration still possessed him, and he stared with glassy eyes at the hill he had Just conquered Then the Images fad­ ed away, and he was lost once again In the labrynth of his drug fed sleep.

The hospital was alive with people by eleven o'clock and Nurse Shulman still had not been relieved, the dayshift was already shorthanded At least she was able to sit down for awhile, one of the energetic newcomers had taken her rounds for her, so Karen Shulman was left to tending the fourth floor desk She had just grabbed a cup of coffee from the nurses' lounge when a small red light began to flash on the sensor console of her desk. The number next to the light was 405

An Intern was already there by the lime she got lo the room It was hardly a crisis, the oxygen tank attached to the respirator was running low and the Intern was attaching a new one. Nurse Shulman leaned against the door frame as her pounding heart returned to a normal pace. She couldn't understand why she felt so empathetlc toward this boy, but the relief that he was still stable (Hied her as she walked back to her desk.

"No: No!" Jeff screamed in horror as he was wrenched from his dreamless state. "I'll kill you, 1 won't let you do It: Why''I No, they can't get me: Slop it: Please make them stop Oh God:"

The hospital sheets were flung from the bed as the boy wrestled with his tortuous nightmare tils heart raced on with great Intensity as his body reacted to phantom scenes of terror. His cries were muffled by the noise of the busy hospital, and the only record of his agony was in the elec­ tronic brain of the blometer

By the time the floor nurse reached Jeff's room on her rounds, his restless sleep had quieted, though his breathing was slightly laboured The rumpled sheets were straighten­ ed and the biometer checked once again When the nurse was satisfied that all was In order, she quietly left the room, leaving Jeff alone in his dark and troubled sleep

"Thanks for the coffee Jane, I'll be ok.iy," It seemed like ages since Karen Shulman had last been to bed She was tired, both mentally and physically, and (he other nurses on the shift were beginning to worry about her.

As she held the capsules in her hand she carefully glanced about to make sure that no one was watching She then quickly slipped them Into her mouth, taking a long swallow of the steaming liquid to wash them down Damn I hate to do this,' she thought to herself, 'but I have to have something to stay awake. It's still a couple of hours 'til the end of the shift Then I'll go to bed ' S' e returned to the monotonous paperwork which lay on her desk as she waited (or the speed to kick in.

Again the Images in Jeff's mind came together, forming a picture of reality unaccustomed to his drug racked brain.

A cool breeze picked up as the sun sllpjied below the dis­ tant horizon. -I guess It does get cold on mountains.' thought Jeff, 'even In the middle of summer! At five thousand feel on Mount JellIco. the evenings were cool Jeff loved thecontinued on page is

If there If anything more challenging than managing a FORAD MNC with a holding company In the U.S. and *ubt In the U.K. and Germany, maybe it's defen­ ding your decisions to two WB profs, and prominent businessmen who funded FORAD in the first place.

Seven businessmen, all members of the President's Council, which provided nearly $8000 In discretionary funds which made FORAD possible were on campus April IB, 19, and 25-27 to help evaluate FORAD presenta­ tions. Kenneth Jacuztl, class of '79 and owner of KA J Soft­ ware, and Kenneth Miller, class of '40 and former presi­ dent of Sears Veneiuela, heard defenses April 18; Robert Withers.

These people, along with Dr. Paul Dickie, who tachers the class, and either Prof. Foster, B, Reed, Tuzzollno, or Dr. Brla acted as members of a board of direc­ tors to whom the FORAD teams were accountable.

Dr. Tom Brla, who will be vice-president of External Affairs as of June I. organli- ed the businessmen's par­ ticipation. He said, -I'm delighted. Now they can come and see what they've done."

Good Advice

Don't expect yourself to be a whirlwind of productivity every day of every week. Don't berate yourself for those listless days - those days you drift around, chat­ ting, opening mall, wonder­ ing what on earth did I do to- day? Such days are delicious. Savor them.

Remember that everyone has them • and life would be oppressively rigid and driven without them.

of segmentation In U.S. and International markets. "Mass Markets are breaking down, and thus product posi­ tioning becomes crucial," he said. The game emphasizes segmentation, providing the players with 5 different segments, each with dif­ ferent needs and behaviours. Product positioning, an off­ shoot of segmentation. Is taught through the use of perceptual maps. The adver­ tising budget, a prime factor In product posltlnlng. Is com posed of advertising research, as well as adver­ tising expenditures.

By defining the Markslrat universe as composed of con­ sumers that could belong to any country, Gonzalez ex­ plained .the relevance of the game to International

marketing. Students hone their International marketing s" Ills by analyz­ ing, and hopefully satisfying, wonts ol segments which are completely new to them.

At semester's end, the win­ ning teams of each Industry will give strategy presenta­ tions, and Freer will discuss the marketing Issues which many teams had to learn the hard way throughout the semester.

Acid Rain —(continued from page 10)smokies, and this camping trip had been a long time In the planning. After six days of hiking he and Oreg were tired and filled with stories of adventure. Tomorrow was the hike back down to the car and then the drive home, Jeff breathed deeply to fill his lungs with the pine scent of the mountain air. He knew It would be a long while before he escaped the city smog again.

••Let's crash on that ledge over there, and remember, It's your turn to cook." Oreg walked over to the ledge and look­ ed out on the deepening shadows of the valley far below. This Is the way he wished to remember the trip.

With full stomachs and a warm fire the two fell Into aimless conversation. Slowly the words became fewer as sleep crept upon the boys, and when the last bite of wood fell to coals, they both lay quietly In their sleeping bag cocoons.

It was hours later when Jeff rubbed his eyes to awaken as a cold wind bit his face. "What the hell's going on." Jeff said half to himself as shards of Ice and snow whipped across the rocky ledge. -This must be a dream, it doesn't snow In July,' but he realized that this was no dream as he began to shiver In the cold.

Oreg, wake up!" He had to yell as the wind began to howl. Greg quickly became aware of the strange situation as the two friends stared at each other In disbelief. -We've got to find wood to build up the fire."

As they climbed from their sleeping bags they found that the rocks had become slick with a smooth coating of Ice. They walked toward a sheltered group of trees, muttering unconvincing statements that the whole situation was im­ possible.

When they had gathered enough dry wood they piled It In the shelter of an outcropping of rock and ran back to retrieve their sleeping bags.

Jeff stumbled on the slick rocks as he ran tlredly toward the ledge. He came to rest at the base of a tree and reached

up to steady himself against the trunk as he tried to stand on the Icy ground. He fell once again and decided to sit where he was and rest for a moment. As he glanced about he noticed a small clump of wild flowers growing next to the tree. They too were now coated with ice, and on Impulse Jeff picked one and shoved It Into the pouch for treasure's which we wore on his belt. He then rejoined Greg and huddl­ ed In the shelter of the rocks.

When they opened the door they found Jeff sitting up In •' bed with a look of confusion on his face. "Mom, dad, where '' am I?" the boy shouted as his eyes came to rest on his parents,

"Oh Jeff, thank God you're alright!" His mother ran lo his bed to hold her son. Tears of relief ran down her cheeks as Jeff began to calm as he slowly perceived the hospital setting.

Nurse Shulman walked quickly over to the blometer cabinet and found his vital signs to be registering normal. She sighed with relief as his parents filled him In on what had happened.

"He'll be alright now Mr. and Mrs. Colton." Dr. Lange had arrived and confirmed the stability of the boy's condi­ tion. "He just needs to rest now," the doctor spoke reassur­ ingly as he ushered them all from the room.

As he lay In the now empty room, Jeff began to fully com­ prehend the situation at hand. He began to recall the many vivid dreams and nightmares. He was relieved It was all over and he reached across to the nlghtstand by the bed to take the glass of water which was sitting there. His hand brushed against something damp and grasped at the form which was laying there. He gazed at the wild flower which he now held In his hand, crystals of Ice still coating the stem, and felt the trickle of water as it ran down his arm. 'No, no, this can't be' he thought, and alone In the room he silently passed away.
