SIMM esq

www.belleville.com | 05/05/2007 | Finance students cut teeth as portfolio managers: "
...student-run portfolio programs provide in-depth investment nitty-gritty aimed primarily at finance majors and Master of Business Administration students. While students are applying what they've learned from textbook theory, the programs also help them develop presentation and communication skills that could pay off with jobs in the financial industry."
I will be teaching SIMM (the SBU student run fund) this coming year. Here is the new website for it thanks to Wren and Chris (and others?)

Study: Your brain shrinks if you drink too much alcohol for a prolonged period - On Deadline - USATODAY.com:
"New research suggests that people who drink a lot of alcohol over a long period of time tend to have smaller brains.

Here's how the neurologist who performed the study described her findings: This cross-sectional study found people who had more than 14 drinks per week had an average 1.6 percent reduction in the ratio of brain volume to skull size compared to people who didn't drink."
Need another reason to avoid excessive drinking?
