Letter from the Dean
T
his fall I was honored to have been chosen as Dean of the McDonough School of Business.
Welcome
This appointment follows my serving as Senior Associate Dean (19992001) and as a Professor of
Economics, Business and Public Policy at the MSB since 1997. After one semester on the job, I must
say that I am genuinely overwhelmed by the tremendous goodwill that I have found toward the School.
As we look to the future, the School faces three priorities directed at positioning us solidly among the
top-tier business schools in the world. First, in recognition that we cannot rely upon a dominant financial
position relative to most of the top-tier schools, we will seek to leverage our considerable non-financial
resources to help elevate the School. Faculty, staff, students, alumni, parents and our corporate friends
will all be asked to help contribute their own particular skills to this effort.
Given the scarcity of new jobs in the current soft economy, we are asking alumni to help our students
network within the business community to identify positions where fellow Hoyas can find opportunities
to excel. If you have information about an employment opportunity, please contact Jim Dixey, our new
Director of MBA Career Management, at 202.687.3745. You can read more about Jim and his plans for the
career management office on page 14.
Third, after years of rapid growth, the School will seek to ensure that we are operationally and financially
positioned to compete as a full-portfolio, top-tier business school. For example, we will seek to establish
personnel to improve our relationships with the corporate community that has been so kind to us over
the years. As part of this effort, we will also clarify our financial relationship with the University in a way
that maximizes the long-term prospects for our mutual success.
In order for these three priorities to have the desired impact all McDonough constituents must offer
unprecedented levels of collaboration and assistance. Indeed, such a spirit of engagement is virtually
CONTENTS
critical to our success. In that same spirit, I wish to reaffirm the McDonough Schools commitment to
building a mutually beneficial partnership with you.
