Ready for Day 2!

Namaste! For the most part, Day 1 went very well. One group of students left the day after Christmas and went to Europe for a few days, but unfortunately their flight was delayed and they didn't get to SRCC until about 2 hours before the first session of Day 1 was due to start. They were very tired but they pulled through. We had a very nice opening ceremony, which included the formalization of an agreement between Saginaw Valley State University and SRCC for a program similar to what UWEC has. Dr. Rama Yelkur is now the Dean of the College of Business and Management at SVSU and she has started the program there, which will also include students from India going to Michigan. It was great to see her again.

On the schedule for today is for the students to begin working on their team projects. Each team consists of SVSU, SRCC, and UWEC students, and they will analyze a global business using some guidelines provided for them yesterday. They will present this on the last days of the program. In the afternoon, we will be going to Kingdom of Dreams, which is a large shopping, restaurant, and theater complex where we will be also seeing a Bollywood play which has gotten very good reviews from the people I've talked to here.
