Palladini’s Experience Underscores Significance of
Growing Criminal Justice Field
As a federal law enforcement officer for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS) for 30 years, Marie Palladini saw the field of criminal justice
change drastically. Yet, perhaps the biggest change took place over the past
five years with the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security and
the escalation of identity theft. Today, in a field that is seeing more
growth than at any point in her entire decorated career, the newest member
of the public administration faculty is able to bring her vast real-world
experience to prepare students to head off into the burgeoning field.

10 Questions…on Dubai’s
Emergence for Tayyeb Shabbir
In the past few years, Dubai has debuted an indoor ski resort – in the middle of
the desert, a string of manmade islands sticking out into the Persian Gulf that
collectively look like a palm tree from the air, plans to build the largest
building in the world, and most recently, a bid for a 20 percent stake in the
NASDAQ stock exchange. In terms of breakneck economic growth, it may be at the
center of the world. So where did this boom time come from? Why now? And, why to

Newsmakers
Robert Dowling, emeritus
professor of management, retired in October
after more than 34 years of service to CSUDH. Dowling served as CBAPP
interim dean preceding the appointment of Dean Jim Strong and moved the
College’s efforts forward in receiving AACSB accreditation, increasing
enrollment, and continuing to enrich students’ lives and help them move on
to successful careers.
Raoul Freeman, professor and
chair of information systems, was recently
re-elected for a 14th year as chairman of the Information Systems Commission
of Los Angeles County. Freeman is the only academician serving on the board,
and no one has ever been re-elected for this many successive terms in the
commission’s history. A 10-member body appointed by the Board of
Supervisors, the Commission provides counsel and oversight to the county's
information technology activities, which have an annual budget in excess of
$750 million. Topics that have been on the agenda of the Commission recently
have included IT governance, the cost effectiveness of e-government
services, IT security, and enterprise resource planning.
Larry Press, professor of
information systems, was quoted as an
expert source on an Oct. 24 program of “The World,” a BBC World Service
radio program co-produced by WGBH public radio in Boston and aired on 240
stations on the public radio network in the United States. Press was sought
out for his expertise on Internet connectivity in Cuba to provide insight on
President Bush’s comments about providing Internet access and computers for
Cuba’s citizens. Press has spent time researching Internet connectivity in
Cuba, and reported that the country has the lowest percentage of people
using the Internet in the Caribbean.
