Hello COM students -
Just a quick heads up to anyone who might be interested: Donavon Favre is again offfering a 3-hour honors practicum course in Supply Chain Management, and there are seats still availble. I wanted to get the word out to folks who might be interested, so I'm clipping this from his Powerpoint. It's a fairly small section, so if you are interested let him know asap (the deadline below has probably been extended). Anyone who has had Donavon for this course or BUS 370 can tell you he's a very knowledgeable, very good instructor (I wish I had instructors like him when I was going through school   )
