I suppose I should say, "organized chaos." The next few weeks will be crazy in the Walton Graduate School of Business. Beginning next Monday, we will host an Orientation for our new Master of Information Systems (MIS)and Professional MIS students. The Walton MIS is a 30 hour program that begins each fall and ends the following summer. The Professional MIS is our part-time MIS program. Students take 6 hours a semester for 5 semesters and are only in class one night each week. For details, please visit: http://gsb.uark.edu/mis.asp.
Tuesday and Wednesday we'll catch our breath before MMBA Orientation begins on Thursday. Wednesday morning I'll be taking my daughter to get her braces put on. This will be our second round; the first time, when she was 8, she had front upper braces and a herbst appliance. She wore this for a year. Now it's time for another herbst and a full set of braces. Poor kid.
On Thursday, we begin our MMBA Orientation. This Orientation is four fun-filled days. We are expecting to enroll 57 students into this program. During Orientation, they will have the chance to get to know each other and they will also be earning their first 2 credit hours. Dr. Ellstrand, MBA Director, will teach a course on the Value Chain. The first class for this semester will be August 29th. To see the full schedule for this upcoming academic year, visit: http://gsb.uark.edu/mmba.asp.
Since the next few weeks are going to be so intense, I am taking the afternoon off and will be heading to Oklahoma to visit my family. I will also be meeting friends in Tulsa tomorrow night and then taking the kids to the Aquarium before heading back on Sunday. I am looking forward to it and my son is very excited about the sting rays. August is very busy so we have to grab a day or two when we can or even a few hours to catch our breath.
Have a great weekend!
