MAN 767 - Fraud Seminar
January 8-12, 2001
COURSE SCHEDULE
Schedule of Classes and Assignments
Classes start Monday morning, January 8, 2001 at 9:00 am. The class portion of the course runs January 8-12, 2001 from 9:00 am to 5:00 PM (this will probably be changed starting Tuesday to 8:30 am to 4:30 PM). Because this is a minimester, attendance at all sessions all day is MANDATORY. Please do not sign up for this course unless you can be there all week.
What You Must Do Before the Class Begins
1. Order and
read books - see below.
2. Be watchful for stories in the paper or
magazines between now and the course involving fraud so that you can present examples
during class. These won't be collected, but by observing what is going on you will
be more aware of the problem and how specific types of fraud have been resolved (or not
resolved). This will be helpful to you in understanding the course as we go along.
