The conference promises to provide an exciting opportunity to share the ideas of a diverse group of academic and industry professionals on a topic that is dear to all our hearts, the future of business education in the new economy. I will be sharing updates and information with you over the weeks to come but thought it might be useful to start before the holidays. I am attaching the most recent "description of the program of events" which remains somewhat fluid as we develop it. However, there are some new developments that you will find interesting. First, I have arranged for "filming" of the event by our local public TV station and we will be working toward the development of the best product possible out of the sessions. Second, David Palumbo (Human Code--an internet content provider-http://www.humancode.com/index2.htm- now owned by Sapient) will join us. David is very knowledgable about both educational issues (he served on the faculty of the University of Houston for 10 years before joining Human Code). He has some very interesting insights to offer on the future of higher education having now worked from the industry side of the equation). Finally, I am currently reading a couple of books that you may find interesting (Telecosm and The New Barbarian Manifesto). I'm sure there are many more interesting sources of information that you are each aware of and it would be helpful if we all began sharing our notes. Finally, let me suggest that each of you begin thinking about the issue(s) that you feel most comfortable commenting upon and phrasing "lead in" questions for me. I would like to build a list of such questions to circulate among all so that we begin to get a feel for the range of topics we will encounter in the discussion and begin to formulate our individual opinions. I hope that this note finds you all anticipating a wonderful holiday season and thank you for participating in this inaugural "think tank" conference on the future of business education. Sincerely yours, John - Revised Workshop- Planning.doc John D. Martin Carr P.
