STAY IN THE KNOW


From the Dean We have many exciting things going on, both inside and outside of our two business buildings. Once you walk inside, you immediately notice that all of our classrooms are multimedia, helping our faculty members to teach, and our students to learn. One of the locations I’m most proud of is our computer testing lab. It is no secret that our state-of-the-art testing lab is a model for other schools. In fact, it has been featured in the New York Times. We believe we have set the standard because we provide a convenient way for our students to take a test, reduce paper, and decrease cheating, You can read more about our testing lab on page six. Our business school has a strong presence off campus as well. The main office of our Small Business Development Center (SBDC) is located in downtown Orlando at the Disney Entrepreneur Center. They also have satellite offices throughout central Florida that enables them to serve an eight-county area. They provide such quality service, that the U.S. Small Business Administration selected an SBDC client as the 2010 National Small Business Person of the Year! Just a few blocks away, you will find our Executive Development Center. They moved downtown in 2008 to better meet the needs of central Florida business leaders. You can read more about both centers in this publication. We continue to make an impact in Orlando and beyond. We are fortunate that many of our alumni stay in the Central Florida area. These graduates hold leadership positions throughout the region, and consistently hire our students for both internships and full-time careers. We also have a strong presence outside this area. We have business graduates living in all 50 states making a difference in communities throughout the nation. Between our national recognitions, distinguished faculty, successful alumni, outstanding students and our size, you will be hearing a lot more about us in the future—no matter where you live! Sincerely,

Thomas L. Keon Thomas L. Keon, Dean

New Name, New Opportunities As our economy begins to recover, our graduate students are challenged to find positions, and employers are challenged to find top candidates. Our Career Connections Office helps both.

an average GPA of 3.6, and an average GMAT score of 630. As a result, there is a significant body of top-flight employers who need the skill sets our students possess.

Formerly known as the Office of Corporate Partnerships and Career Management, the office was originally established to link employers and graduate students together for both internships and full-time employment upon graduation.

“This is a really exciting time to be working in this arena. The job market of today calls for much more precise placement activities. By creating new ways to fulfill the mission of establishing viable Career Connections, we can facilitate the matching of high quality students with high quality employers,” said Bob Case, coordinator, Career Connections.

The office is literally re-inventing itself to provide the highest possible service levels to students, alumni and employers. To emphasize the link between UCF and outside employers, the office has been re-named Career Connections. The name change goes much deeper than simply a new title. Every aspect of the cycle of service Career Connections offers is being analyzed, reviewed and re-engineered to create the best synergistic connection between alumni, students and employers. We believe that there are significant opportunities to enhance our services to the mutual benefit of all our stake holders. Our current full time MBA candidates possess

All one-year full-time MBA program internships are coordinated through Career Connections. The staff works closely with local, national and international companies to help students find jobs in their field. The facility is equipped with 10 interview rooms for employers to interview on-campus and a satellite office of Career Services, the university-wide career office. Watch for upcoming details as Career Connections continues to progress in order to meet the needs of today’s students and employers.

The Future of Testing Has Arrived Just a few short years ago, exams were administered in the classroom and students showed up armed with Number 2 pencils and Scantron forms. That is no longer the case at our business school. As technology has improved, so have our testing methods. Both faculty members and students agree that online testing is the preferred way to give and take exams. The Testing Lab Computer-based exams are administered in our 164-seat testing lab. We also have an overflow room with another 60 seats. The main purpose of the lab is to provide professors with an option to conduct tests in a secure environment and provide flexibility for

students. Additionally, computer-based testing eliminates the printing of paper exams which saves money and helps the environment. The lab is open everyday except Sunday, and stays open until midnight four nights a week. Convenience Students like the convenience of taking an exam on their own schedule. Each test is usually available for several days, and has a specific start and finish date and time. A student can take their exam any time during that period. “I believe my students enjoy using the lab, primarily because of the flexibility it provides. For example, my mid-term exams are open

two days and my final exams are available the entire finals week, allowing students to take the exam at their convenience,” said Paul Gregg, finance instructor. “It also allows them flexibility for family emergencies, sickness, or religious holidays,” he added. Management Professor Marshall Schminke agrees with Gregg, and feels the students enjoy learning their grades at the end of the exam, “The immediate feedback allows students to leave the lab knowing exactly how well they have done.” To prevent long lines during peak exam times such as midterms and finals, the college implemented COBA Pass, which is similar to the Fast Pass system used at area theme parks. Students are allowed to schedule the exact time they would like to show up to take their exam 48 hours in advance. Upon arrival, if there is a line, COBA pass holders can go to the front and enter the lab to take the exam at their scheduled time. Business students like using the COBA Pass. “This system is really efficient. I can schedule a specific time that works best for me. I am able to take my test right away, so I can enjoy the

rest of the day,” said accounting major Tim O’Reilly. “Also, I love the fact that I know my grade immediately and don’t have to wait a week to find out what it is,” he added. Students can check the testing lab website on campus or remotely to see which tests are open and how many seats are available. The information is also posted on monitors throughout both business buildings. Faculty

Surveillance cameras are located throughout the testing lab. Staff members are able to monitor the room and zoom in on any potential problems.

The feedback from faculty members is very positive. Professors submit questions to a database. The answers can be randomized, so no two students in the same class have the exact same answers. Carolyn Massiah, a lecturer in the Marketing Department uses the lab frequently, “I can design the exam in Webcourses and provide multiple versions of the exam in the testing lab in a much more efficient manner than in the classroom with paper and pencil,” she said. “Best of all, the grades automatically populate my grade book!” continued on p. 8

High-Tech Security We provide a secure testing environment and have taken every precaution to combat cheating. Upon arrival, students must check-in and present their student identification. Students are not allowed to bring in any backpacks, cell phones, books or notes (unless specifically allowed by their instructor). Lockers are provided outside the lab so they can check their belongings. They may bring in a financial calculator (if approved by instructor). Additionally, if the instructor authorizes, students can use scratch paper that is provided by the lab. All scratch paper is stamped and must be turned in upon departure. Overhead cameras monitor the student’s every move while proctors patrol the testing facility. The check-in desk computers allow staff to focus in on any suspicious activity. The testing lab and its computers are electronically monitored and capable of recording real time video. “Over the past five years, the lab has become the only way I would consider testing. I am

“The testing lab continues to improve. When I was a student here, we had block scheduling. Basically, you came and took a test with your class.

Open testing is much more convenient and the students prefer it.”

—Aaron Smart, Testing Lab Manager thoroughly impressed with the security of delivering an exam via the lab. I know that I would not be able to provide the same level of security in the classroom,” said Massiah. While student cheating will always remain a concern, the staff of the testing center has had very good results decreasing the amount of violators. “Unfortunately, I’m not sure anyone will ever be able to stop cheating completely, but we have definitely reduced it. Last semester, we only had 14 suspected incidents out of 64,000 exams administered,” said Taylor Ellis, associate dean.


EDC Says Hola to Spanish Business Executives! Business leaders from Spain met business leaders from Orlando as part of the UCF Executive Development Center's (EDC) International Residency Program partnership. This is the third time the EDC has hosted the Escuela de Organización International (EOI), which was founded by the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Education to provide engineers with management and organizational skills. The professionals are enrolled in Madrid University’s Executive MBA program. The visitors learned first-hand about Central Florida’s history and development, the challenges and economic impact of area tourism and the global economy’s effects on Orlando. They also received a behind-thescenes tour at EPCOT, SeaWorld, and Indra Systems Inc., and met with CBA faculty members and leaders from the Orlando/ Orange County Convention and Visitors Bureau Inc., Metro Orlando Economic Development Commission, the Disney Entrepreneur Center and the UCF Business Incubation Program. The EDC, which is part of the CBA, is rapidly gaining a reputation as a destination to host

international residencies for foreign universities. The center provides a critical link to help create global partnerships with overseas businesses. “The goal of the program is to use Orlando as a vehicle for students to practice the concepts that they’ve learned in their own academic studies,” said Tiffany Hughes, an associate director at the EDC. “We expect the students will be able to use what they learned and experienced here in their personal and professional careers.” The group agreed. “The program offered valuable information. We touched upon important items every executive interested in working, investing, or exporting for a U.S. firm should know,” said EOI international business professor Dr. Antonio Fontanini, Informalia Consulting, Madrid.

“Great experience! The organization and hospitality of the whole team were excellent and we had amazing speakers and presentations.” The group visited central Florida businesses and tourist destinations

Biz Central Real Estate Program Changes Location in the Rankings! The Dr. P. Phillips School of Real Estate tied for sixth place out of 40 schools, according to rankings released by the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC). The school, located in the CBA, began offering a Professional Master’s Degree in Real Estate in June and continues to expand programs, conduct research, and gain recognition. Last year, the ICSC ranked the school ninth.

New Provost Begins at UCF Tony Waldrop has been named the new provost of UCF and began just before the fall term. His most recent position was vice chancellor for research and economic development at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. In that role, he was responsible for 12 university-wide research support offices and 15 research centers. Waldrop replaces Terry Hickey who retired in June.

Hope for Stanley Brings Hope to New Orleans

donated 1570 hours of service at seven different worksites and completed projects ranging from flooring to hanging sheetrock. As reported in the Fall 2009 edition of In the Know, this initiative began several years ago when 10 students traveled to New Orleans with Richard Lapchick and his wife Ann during the winter break. The students helped rebuild a home for New Orleans resident Stanley Stewart. Stanley inspired the students so much that they decided to create an organization that could help people who were in a dire situation similar to his. In February 2007, in conjunction with the New Orleans City Council, the Hope for Stanley Alliance was launched. In addition to their volunteer work, the students recently hosted “UCF Remembers,” a five- year tribute ceremony for the victims of Hurricane Katrina and the City of New Orleans at the UCF Reflecting Pond. The event featured three speakers, a slide show, and a jazz band. The ceremony concluded with the lighting of candles in order to remember those lost, and to celebrate the hope that is still alive in New Orleans today. Students from the program plan to travel back to the city to volunteer again in December.

Introducing the “B.A. Team”

For the 27th time, graduate students from the DeVos Sport Business Management Program traveled to New Orleans to help rebuild the Lower Ninth Ward. A group of 58 students were accompanied by the program's three leaders: Richard Lapchick, Bill Sutton and Keith Harrison. The group 10

We have a new team in town! Students from the college formed an organization that provides resources to business students. Dubbed the “B.A.


Biz Central Team,” group members serve as a direct liaison from CBA administrators to students. Through events, networking, and student interaction, the B.A. team fills the social and educational gap between the college and its students, so that the administration knows what students want and need, and students know what the administration has to offer. The group recently held their inaugural event—B.A. Day, in the Student Union. Representatives from academic departments and student organizations were on hand to inform all UCF students what our college has to offer. In addition, the team handed out free t-shirts and pizza. The event drew more than 400 students and was a huge success. The B.A. Team is busy planning future events for the rest of the semester.

Alumni Chapter Golf Tournament Raised Money “Fore” Scholarships

More than 100 golfers participated in the 12th Annual CBA Alumni Chapter Golf Tournament at Eagle Creek Golf Club. The event raised $11,500. Proceeds will be used to fund the CBA Alumni Chapter Endowed Scholarship and chapter operating expenses.

Two From UCF Recognized by Wall Street Journal Recent graduates Kerissa Danielle Gentile and Dominic Anthony D'Amato were both

selected as 2010 Wall Street Journal Student Achievement Award winners. They were selected on their academic achievements, as well as their outstanding performance in the Capstone course. In recognition of this honor, they received a commemorative award medallion, a one-year subscription to the Wall Street Journal, and were listed among all the other winners in a full-page announcement in the publication. The Wall Street Journal Student Achievement Award was established to provide national recognition to top graduating seniors in business at colleges and universities that are participating in its Journal-in-Education program. UCF is one of the few universities that had two winners instead of just one!

Marketing Students Help Local Mall CBA marketing students partnered with the Oviedo Marketplace Merchants Association, to develop strategic marketing plans for the Oviedo Marketplace, a local shopping center that has been hit hard by the economy. Under the guidance of course instructor Robert Cascio, student teams recommended strategic plans aimed at boosting consumer traffic and confidence, as well as revenue, and profitability for the mall. Suggestions included increased community involvement, social venue positioning, exterior renovations, open space utilization, movie promotions, and the development of a unique dining and entertainment experience. These and other suggestions were well received and Jim Pridemore, president of the association, will propose plan implementation to mall management and the merchants association.

With more than 56,000 students for the Fall 2010 semester, UCF remains the largest university in Florida, and among the largest in the nation! 11
