Fall
2003 Conference Evaluation
One aspect of the Fall 2003 AUBER
Conference in New Orleans is very clear: almost everyone
loved the food.
The evaluation sheets have been
gathered and the ratings have been tallied. Based upon
the consensus of those who answered the evaluation sheets,
the fall conference was a success. Even with three concurrent
sessions and a host city that could distract anyone,
each session was well attended. Moreover, there was
excellent interaction and discussion between the presenters
and those who attended. Continued...
Profile:
The Sparks Bureau of Business and Economic Research
and Center for Manpower Studies at The University of
Memphis
The original Bureau of Business
and Economic Research was established in 1963 and has
served as the primary applied research and public service
unit of the Fogelman College of Business at The University
of Memphis. Since that time, financial support of the
bureau has been provided by the university and has included
designated grants from the City of Memphis and Shelby
County Government. Over the last 40 years, the bureau
has worked to support the teaching, research, and public
service mission goals and objectives of the college and
the university. In 2003, in recognition of its strong
research history and excellent service, the bureau was
formally renamed after Willard Sparks and became the Sparks
Bureau of Business and Economic Research (SBBER). Continued...

Research
Communicators: Yes, That Includes "Editors"
Once again, we have experienced
a successful fall conference that included topics such
as "To Print or Not to Print" that explored
online publication and "Adobe's Seamless Workflows"
that highlighted new, time-saving Adobe software. However,
with the short time frame and so many strong topics, it
was difficult to attend every session this conference
offered. Perhaps next year we can see a session on "How
to Clone Conference Registrants for Maximum Conference
Coverage." Continued...
