Case Assignments
Home Up

I have taken the input I received from everyone, and I have done the best I can of assigning people to cases and to work with the individuals requested and the cases requested.  In most cases, I was able to schedule one or the other (either working with someone you wanted, or working on the case you wanted), but in a few cases, I wasn't able to do either - my apologies.  There were simply more people interested in some cases (Southwest, Disney, and Toys 'R Us in particular).  In some cases I had 2-3 in one location interested in a case, and 2-3 in the other location interested in the same case.  Also, you will note that some groups have four members, while others have five.  It wasn't possible to make all other groups exactly the same.

All of the cases are good, interesting cases (in my opinion), and there are lessons to be learned from each one.

I'll tentatively plan on running class from the Moline location on 2/25 and on 4/1, barring any unforeseen circumstances.
