"All business depends on men fulfilling their responsibility."

The purpose of this web site is to provide information and materials for students enrolled in Wayne Smith's Management 360pace course, Class # 17444, for the Spring, 2008 semester.
This course meets in the "1st-half of the semester", Tue 6:00pm - 7:50pm (1/22, 1/29, 2/5, 2/12, 2/19, 2/26, 3/4, 3/11) and Sat 8:30am - 12:00noon (1/26, 2/9, 2/23, 3/8) in OV25.
This course is offered by the Department of Management in the College of Business and Economics at California State University, Northridge (CSUN). CSU Northridge is one of 23 campuses in the California State University system.
This class section is offered under the umbrella of the PACE program. This program includes courses
designed to be taught in an "intensive" format, including a shorter semester and more rapid movement through the course material.
Often, mid-career working professionals (some of whom are already managers) take these classes and are therefore used to studying
and interacting together. While non-PACE students are welcome to enroll (assuming space availability), non-PACE students will find this class section of MGT 360 more difficult
and time-consuming that non-PACE sections of MGT 360. Or put differently, students will need to expend more effort both in-class and out-of-class
in this section of MGT 360 than in other sections of MGT 360 in order to earn a passing letter grade.
