Events from the Break






We just recently enjoyed a well-earned week of time off to relax and enjoy San Diego. The break started with a happy hour with the two instructors of the classes we had just finished: Nelson Gayton for Sports Marketing and Kamal Haddad for Finance. It was fun to kick back with the profs at a Pacific Beach bar and also celebrate three birthdays that occurred that week.



Another highlight was the Ocean Beach Chili Cookoff and Street Fair. It was a wild time and we got to watch one of our own (Brett) play rugby that day as well. An estimated 70,000 people crammed the streets of Ocean Beach for music, drinks, food, amateur wrestling (strange but true), carnival rides, and of course chili! The weather was perfect as well.


The rest of the break was devoted to catching up on reading and relaxing and playing lots of golf. We are just getting started with a couple of new classes: International Business and Marketing. Dennis Green is also getting us primed for his course that starts at the end of August. Should be a great next couple of months!!
