Subotnick Center news, including Feb. 19 lunch.
Dinner and a movie:
The Subotnick Financial Services Center Invites ALL
FACULTY to Lunch, an exciting 7 minute film about SFSC and an easy hands
on LEARN TO USE SUBOTNICK RESOURCES session.
Wednesday, Feb. 19th, 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm.
Seminar Room 125, First Floor, Library Building.
Please RSVP by Feb. 15th to: [log in to unmask]
Since our March 2000 opening, the live news/prices and historic economic
data/news/prices available at the Subotnick Financial Services Center have
been used for over 100 class meetings of more than 40 undergraduate and
masters level courses in areas including CIS, Statistics, Economics,
Marketing, Accounting, Business Journalism and Finance.
To maximize the educational value of the center, we would like to support
you and your students in any way we can. We have worked with faculty to
develop in-class exercises and homework assignments based on the center's:
- Live and historic news stories as well as market data
- Built-in, ready to complete, finance, accounting and economics
assignments
- Analytic tools in Microsoft, Excel and SAS
- Company research reports and accounting data from Thomson First Call
- Several trading simulations, plus one that uses actual price data
Our information sources are "downloadable"; students can create their own
data files and analyze them later, away from the Center.
Easy to use help screens will have you and your students actively using
Reuters, First Call, and other programs within 5 minutes.
We have plenty of available time slots for 2003 class sessions (view our
online calendar from the "calendar" link on the SFSC website above), and
we'd like you to build one or more Subotnick Center sessions into your
course syllabus. Contact us to learn how to integrate the Subotnick Center
into your lectures and class assignments, or have me teach one of your class
sessions here.
The SFSC staff looks forward to seeing you soon!
Cheers,

Money and the Web

on the Web?
