CWRU Office for Inclusion, Diversity and Equal Opportunity releases survey to assist in Diversity Strategic Action Plan

The Office for Inclusion, Diversity and Equal Opportunity (OIDEO) has launched a campus-wide survey at Case Western Reserve University in order to further the goals of their Diversity Strategic Action Plan (DSAP), created in 2012. Moving forward, the questionnaire will be administered every three years in an attempt to regularly monitor the campus climate in regards to inclusion and diversity. According to the OIDEO website, the DSAP was created in order to create “increased visibility, accountability and collaboration as the university strives to fulfill its inclusion, diversity and equity goals.” The top three actionable goals of the DSAP are to improve the “campus climate,” increase “retention and recruitment of faculty, students and staff from underrepresented groups” and enhance “leveraging of university resources to advance diversity and inclusion.” In order to continue achieving these goals, the campus climate survey was released. The survey is estimated to take just 5-10 minutes to complete, and questions will range from simple multiple choice to short answer. The survey inquires as to whether individuals feel that CWRU has an inclusive climate. Furthermore, participants have the ability to give their own thoughts and suggestions as to how CWRU can better serve its students. To compensate […]

MacStadium sees a ‘massive opportunity’ for Apple in business markets

MacStadium sees a ‘massive opportunity’ for Apple in business markets

Apple After Apple introduced its amazing M2 Mac mini , I caught up with one of the world’s biggest Mac mini customers, MacStadium , for some insights into how the company views the new systems. “I’ve never been more optimistic for the Mac platform,” said Chris Chapman, MacStadium’s CTO. “When we first started, the rate of change for Macs was something like five to seven years per model. It was specific. "Their proliferation into the business and enterprise market was still a little fuzzy because iPhones were new, and Macs were good for specific people," he said. “This has changed — they are becoming the de facto standard for laptop, desktop, and phone and you’re really starting to see it become pervasive. It starts with the consumer but has grown to pervade business and enterprises everywhere.” We agreed that this is another illustration of the need to keep enterprise tech consumer simple, but enterprise capable. The pandemic drove many to switch to Macs for professional work, and the move to Apple Silicon accelerated that existing trend. “It’s amazing how much cheaper and how much more performant these things are becoming, generation over generation, it’s providing an Incredible platform for […]

How Google’s long period of online dominance could end

How Google’s long period of online dominance could end

Washington CNN — For the better part of 15 years, Google has seemed like an unstoppable force, powered by the strength of its online search engine and digital advertising business. But both now look increasingly vulnerable. This week, the Justice Department accused Google of running an illegal monopoly in its online advertising business and called for parts of it to be broken up. The case comes a couple of years after the Trump administration filed a similar suit going after the tech giant’s dominance in search. Google said the Justice Department is “doubling down on a flawed argument” and that the latest suit “attempts to pick winners and losers in the highly competitive advertising technology sector.” If successful, however, both blockbuster cases could upend a business model that’s made Google the most powerful advertising company on the internet. It would be the most consequential antitrust victory against a tech giant since the US government took on Microsoft more than 20 years ago. But even though the lawsuits drive at the heart of Google’s revenue machine, they could take years to play out. In the meantime, two other thorny issues are poised to determine Google’s future on a potentially shorter […]

ChatGPT passes exams from law and business schools

ChatGPT passes exams from law and business schools

CNN — ChatGPT is smart enough to pass prestigious graduate-level exams – though not with particularly high marks. The powerful new AI chatbot tool recently passed law exams in four courses at the University of Minnesota and another exam at University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School of Business, according to professors at the schools. To test how well ChatGPT could generate answers on exams for the four courses, professors at the University of Minnesota Law School recently graded the tests blindly . After completing 95 multiple choice questions and 12 essay questions, the bot performed on average at the level of a C+ student, achieving a low but passing grade in all four courses. ChatGPT fared better during a business management course exam at Wharton, where it earned a B to B- grade. In a paper detailing the performance , Christian Terwiesch, a Wharton business professor, said ChatGPT did “an amazing job” at answering basic operations management and process-analysis questions but struggled with more advanced prompts and made “surprising mistakes” with basic math. “These mistakes can be massive in magnitude,” he wrote. The test results come as a growing number of schools and teachers express concerns about the immediate impact […]

Liberal Arts students create group to diversify Penn State business fraternities

Aditya Datta spearheaded the formation of the Business Fraternity Diversity Council last fall Aditya Datta (left), Ekow Asomaning (upper right) and Eswar Chelliah (bottom right) are members of Penn State’s new Business Fraternity Diversity Council. UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — During a breakfast for Chapel Executive Interns last fall, Aditya Datta, a third-year Paterno Fellow and Schreyer Scholar majoring in economics, pitched the idea of creating the Business Fraternity Diversity Council to Clarence Lang, Susan Welch Dean of the College of the Liberal Arts. As a member and former director of diversity, inclusion and community engagement for the Delta Sigma Pi professional business fraternity, it was important to Datta that the business fraternities at Penn State provide an inclusive culture and reflect the school they serve, he said. Datta, a Lansdale, Pennsylvania, native, said he knew that for this venture to be successful, he would need access to leaders in professional networks and a scalable idea. Lang put Datta in contact with Melissa Landrau Vega, the director of the Multicultural Resource Center, which opened pathways to communicate with Charles Whiteman, the dean of Smeal College of Business, and Olivia Lewis, the director of diversity enhancement in Smeal. “When we came […]

Russia ministries oppose Veon plans to sell Russian mobile business – paper

Jan 26 (Reuters) – Russia’s finance ministry, economy ministry and central bank all oppose plans by mobile operator Veon Ltd (VON.AS) to sell its Russian business, Vimpelcom, the Kommersant newspaper said on Thursday. Last November, Amsterdam-listed Veon (VON.AS) said it would sell Vimpelcom to senior members of the Vimpelcom management team, led by CEO Aleksander Torbakhov, for 130 billion roubles ($1.87 billion). Kommersant, citing unidentified sources, said the deal in its current form did not suit the holders of Veon Eurobonds and had been sent back for revisions. Separately, Tass news agency cited a source saying the government had sent the deal back so changes could be made, but did not give any details. Kommersant said it had not received responses to requests for comment from Vimpelcom, Veon or the two Russian ministries. ($1 = 69.6505 roubles)

Confluent is cutting 8% of its staff

Confluent is cutting 8% of its staff

Confluent Inc. is cutting 8% of its staff and is reportedly losing its chief revenue officer. The Mountain View company announced the layoffs Thursday in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission . The provider of data management software is making the cuts — which amount to about 220 workers — to help it reach profitability more quickly, co-founder and CEO Jay Kreps said in a letter to employees it also filed with the SEC. Due to economic uncertainty, it’s taking longer for the company to close sales, so its growth is slowing, Kreps said in his letter. At the same time, it’s under increasing pressure to stem its losses, he said. "To many, I’m sure this news (of the layoffs) comes as a shock, though those following the broader tech ecosystem closely may be less surprised," Kreps said. "Ultimately, we had optimized some aspects of our operations for a very different world than we found ourselves operating in," he continued. "The responsibility for that falls squarely on me." In addition to the cuts, Larry Shurtz has left his position as Confluent’s CRO, The Information reported . Shurtz, who formerly worked for Salesforce Inc. as its executive vice […]

Frontier line thefts cause thousands in losses to Williamson W.Va. business

WILLIAMSON, W.Va . (WSAZ) – Two businesses are reporting losses because Frontier services have been out for days at a time. Paul Price is the CEO of Precision Heating, Cooling, and Electric. One of his locations is situated on Williamson’s West Side. Along with Appalachian Tire Company across the street, the two businesses say they are experiencing significant losses when calls cannot be accepted. “All three of our phone lines are out, this is an ongoing problem a total of two and a half weeks since November that our phones have been and it’s critical our customers can’t in touch with us,” said Price. Those lines are how customers get in touch with Precision Heating, Cooling, and Electric. It is a number known well to Southern West Virginians, 304-235-2000, but employees at their location on Third Ave cannot pick up the phone. That number and the others for the company are connected to Frontier services. Price said when the internet and phone services began going out in November his losses were so great he decided the company should get internet services with another service in addition to Frontier. WSAZ reached out to Frontier about the outages. A spokesperson with […]
