Our previously scheduled speaker, Bill Burton of Hillwood Properties, has
had to reschedule (for Feb. 23). I have been able to snag the VP for
Marketing Research at The Buxton Company in Ft. Worth, Todd Walls, to stand
in. Our graduating student, Katie Pollock, has been working for them for the
past year or so, and they are wooing several of our current students for
part-time jobs; they're growing like crazy in their main line of business,
which is advising retailers on new store locations. So keep the date (and
time:  5:30-6:30 p.m.) on your calendars. I will have more information about
Mr. Walls and his presentation to send out next week. Happy Thanksgiving!
