Announcements  (Updated 8.15.08)

  • Waitlist and Section Change Information: The course is currently full for Fall 2008 and waitlist has gone away. Only those who are enrolled should continue to attend.

     
  • Fall 2008 Schedule Click on the Timetable for exam dates. Although sections will not meet in certain weeks marked due to University holidays, lectures will meet on all scheduled class days, including the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.
     
  • Students in ugba-10, Spring 2008, made promo videos for the course: Here's the winner of our internal competition for the ugab-10 promo video.
     
  • Fall 2008 Textbook Information 

    There are two textbooks for ugba-10--follow the link. The Reader is new for each year so you need the edition called Principles of Business 2009.
     
  • Name and Bio Sheet Instructions  For section, you will need a Name Card and Bio Sheet. The instructions, examples and templates are available online.
     
  • PowerPoint Viewer if you don't have PowerPoint on your computer, you can download a program that allows you to view our posted files. Note: This is not a "supported technology"; that means if it works, great; if it doesn't we can't help you trouble-shoot your own computer setup.
     
  • E-mail   Please make sure to include your real name. If your personal name isn't displayed we may delete your e-mail without reading (because of the fear of viruses). Please make use of the subject line to summarize your message.
     
  • Plagiarism  The Internet and powerful search engines give students access to a broad range of information. However, now that students can do research at their own desks rather than with a trip to the library, people have become rather casual about citing their sources. The Haas School takes the correct attribution of material to sources as very important. Please read this on-line article from the University of Indiana Campus Writing Program, and make sure you know how to avoid plagiarism.
     
  • Ethics In the third week of each module, the discussion often focuses on an ethical issue. The best way to prepare for Ethics discussions is to work the "framework" on this link.
     
  • How am I doing?  You can tell how you are doing relative to the other students in the class by visiting the Statistics page. (It takes us about 10 days after each exam to process the data.) Information on viewing the web-posted grades has been e-mailed to your registered e-mail address.


Welcome to Undergraduate Business Administration 10

ugba-10, Principles of Business, is taught in five, 3-week modules. There are three instructors, one of whom will be responsible for each module. One of the instructors serves as the Course Manager to whom all procedural questions (e.g. special accommodations, schedule problems, logistical difficulties) should be addressed. Each module ends with an in-class exam. In addition there are weekly one-hour discussion sections led by seven Graduate Student Instructors which you must attend. You will be given a detailed outline at the beginning of each module, which will list the professor's office hours. E-mail is the preferred method of communication.


The ugba-10 Website

This web site will be updated frequently. This is the place to check for up-to-date announcements. Please note that lecture notes are placed on the site as the class progresses, not all at once. (If you get a message that says "File Not Found" it just means that the lecture is not ready yet.)  The person responsible for this site is Dave Robinson, Course Manager.
