The interning students helped bring executives from both the HDC and university together.
Marketing Interns at HDC Bridge the Divide
As arguably the most successful partnership between CSUDH and the Home Depot Center (HDC) since the multi-million dollar sports facility came to campus, a group of marketing interns spent the academic year meeting high-power executives, working HDC events, and developing the ideas, storyboards, and budget for two proposed 30-second advertisement spots to promote the university and partnership during events at the HDC. In the process, they gained a slew of real-world experience, generated a buzz about the program among students within CBAPP, and helped bring the two institutions closer together.  Full story

10 Questions…on Integral Sustainability for Annie Wilson
Political science lecturer Annie Wilson has described herself as an environmentalist since the 1980s, but it wasn’t until she came to study Integral Studies while completing her Ph.D. in Political Theory and American Politics at Texas A&M that she started to understand that only when others’ worldviews are considered can such issues make headway.

Students Get Port Tour
Advisory Board member and alumnus Mike DeBernardo recently gave Assistant Professor of Information Systems and Operations Management Hamid Pourmohammadi’s “Introduction to Operations Management” and “Supply Chain Management” classes a tour of the Port of Los Angeles at the end of April. The tour helped bring concepts the students had learned in the classroom to life in the real world applications of the port.
 

Newsmakers
Frank Strier, professor of accounting and finance, had his article, “Stealth Compensation,” published in the May issue of the International Journal of Disclosure and Governance. The article describes the ways some executives have disguised forms of compensation in proxy statements, financial statements, and other reports. It goes on to explain the problems with such forms of compensation and suggests forms of corporate governance that could close such loopholes.
