THIS FRIDAY
"Technological rebound: the role of innovation in the commercial revival
of the US machine tool industry"
Alan MacPherson (Professor, New York)
Time: 2:30 - 3:30 PM, March 10, 2000
Place: 304 Smith Hall
Abstract:
Despite rising import competition and years of employment decline, the US
machine too (MT) industry is beginning to look like an internationally
competitive sector. Part of this 'turnaround' can be traced to recent
improvements in machine design, as well as to changes in design policy. It
would appear that successful exporters no longer attempt to serve foreign
clients with products that were originally designed for the home market.
Instead, machines are now designed with regard to the technical needs of
foreign users. This represents a fundamental shift in design policy.
Evidence from a pilot survey of 173 MT companies suggests that export
performance is closely linked to design policy. A research agenda for
exploring the dynamics of the MT industry from a geographical perspective
is offered.

Subject: Census Volunteers (fwd)
CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS!!
Who: The US Bureau of the Census
What: Help assure that all of our people are counted.
When: March 8 thru April 14 (variety of scheduled times).
Where: Various sites around our neighborhoods and communities.
The time for all of us to be counted is here. The US Census is beginning its
every-ten-year count of the population. In 1990 there were undercounts in many
communities. To help prevent that from happening again, the Census Bureau will
have locations in our neighborhoods where people can come for answers about the
questionnaire they received in the mail or to ask for a questionnaire. We are
asking for volunteers from the neighborhoods to staff these sites. You will be
trained by Census professionals. Trainings are being offered up to March 8.
Sites open March 8, and most locations will be open only two hours per day -
some daily, some only once or twice per week. A Census Field representative will
coordinate your schedule, provide you with all the materials needed and be
available to answer your questions or problems. If you speak a second language,
that is a plus. You must be able to read and speak English if English is your
second language and be comfortable speaking with the public. As Census data is
confi
dential for 72 years, protected by Title 13 of the US Legal Code, you will swear
an oath to maintain strict confidentiality of the information you discuss.
This project is very important to assuring an accurate count of our community.
Besides assuring fair representation in the US House of Representatives, Census
data is the basis for sharing of tax revenue at Federal, State and Local levels.
Please help us get everyone counted.
If interested, contact Mitch Williams at the Census - (206)220-4740.
Thank you!

Subject: Geography majors & Strategic Planning
msg from Dan Carnrite, your
Undergraduate Geography Association President:
I hope many of you can attend a free pizza party and town hall meeting from
12:30-2:00 on Wednesday, February 16, tentatively in Smith 409. The purpose
of this gathering is for the Geography undergraduates to play a role in the
department's strategic planning process by talking about what directions the
department should be heading in over the next decade. This conversation is
part of the campus-wide conversations President McCormick has asked the UW
community to engage in this academic year, and is a great opportunity for
you to say what's working in the department, what could be better, and what
what new things to shoot for. Some other quick points:
1) Next week I'll send around some framing questions
2) if you can't attend the live session, there will be an e-mail or
web-based way to get your ideas to the department
3) the UGA might want to consider some sort of priority list of ways to
improve the undergraduate Geography majors' experience...just an idea to
keep in the back of your minds
Hope to see many of you on the 16th
Thanks for your help and enthusiasm in this very important moment in the
department's history. This is one of those rare times when undergraduates
really can make a difference!

Subject: Digital Divide show
"Computers are increasingly conditioning the kind of country we live in.
DIGITAL DIVIDE, a new PBS series, shines a light on the role computers play
in widening social gaps throughout our society, particularly among young
people. By providing equitable and meaningful access to technology we can
ensure that all children step into the 21st Century together.
DIGITAL DIVIDE is a two-part series for PBS that explores how the rapid
spread of computer technology is affecting young people across the country.
Narrated by Queen Latifah, the series asks the question: is everyone
participating equally, if at all, in the Digital Revolution? And are "wired"
kids being taught how to use computers in ways that enhance instead of
replace traditional learning skills? Through interviews with innovators
around the country who are bridging the digital divide in the classroom and
in the streets, the series explores some of the best practices for using
technology effectively at school and in the home.
The series focuses on the many aspects of the digital divide, exploring how
the issues plays out in terms of education, employment, race, and gender."
