Dean candidate speaks at UO
James Bean, a candidate
for business school dean,
spoke with the University
community on Tuesday
By Jennifer Sudick
Freelance Editor
In an effort to be chosen as dean of
the Charles H. Lundquist College of
Business, James Bean, University of
Michigan College of Engineering asso
ciate dean for academic affairs, present
ed his vision for the college to about 40
students, faculty and community mem
bers on Tuesday afternoon.
In a multimedia presentation at the
Lillis Business Complex, Bean stressed
the importance of issues such as busi
ness sustainability, technology and
faculty diversification.
"Lillis screams sustainable busi
ness," he said. "We need to be consid
ering more than just economics."
Bean, a former Homart (real estate)
Development company employee,
and Kenneth Evans, the associate
dean of the University of Missouri -
Columbia College of Business, are the
finalists being considered for the po
sition, which current Lundquist Col
lege of Business Dean Phil Romero
will be vacating in June.
Bean said one of his goals for the
position is to enhance community in
volvement in the college's activities.
"The best is when community col
laborations lead to cutting-edge re
search," the former Oregon resident
said. "The Lundquist College of Busi
ness should be seen as an indispensa
ble part in the Oregon economy."
Bean said several of the challenges he
would face as dean are learning about
the different areas of business — such
as finance, marketing and accounting
— and expanding the faculty.
"Faculty need to have complimen
tary talents," he said. "I can never
make as good a decision myself as I
can with faculty bringing different
perspectives."
Junior Josh Rose, one of the few stu
dents at Bean's presentation, said he
liked what the candidate had to say.
"I think he had a good talk, and I
like what he said about sustainabili
ty," Rose said.
College of Business Associate Dean
Ray King shared similar sentiments,
but said that no decisions have yet
been made as to who the dean will be.
"1 thought (the presentation) was
first-rate and responsive," King said.
In addition to the presentation,
Bean's six-day stay in Oregon includ
ed visits with University administra
tors, faculty and students, l ie said he
is excited about the University's small
environment as compared to the Uni
versity of Michigan, which he said will
give him increased interaction with
students.
• "I feel very positively about (the vis
it)," he said. "Faculty, staff and stu
dents need to feel they are part of
something that is building. This is a
great time to be at Oregon."

ASUO
continued from page 1
has an "open-chair policy," which
emphasizes that anyone can stop by
and get involved in ASUO.
Creighton-Neiwert, a self-de
scribed "West Coast girl," grew up
mostly in Eugene and around Ore
gon, but also spent summers on
Southern California beaches and
winters skiing at Mt. Bachelor.
After receiving a bachelor's degree
in accounting from the University in
2001, Creighton-Neiwert, who
ASUO Spokeswoman Taraneh Foster
likened to a "human file cabinet,"
began graduate studies in Public Pol
icy and Management. She said she
works 50 to 60 hours a week at
ASUO during the school year, in ad
dition to her graduate studies.
"Budget season is probably not the
best time to ask me how many hours
a week 1 work," Creighton-Neiwert
said. "I get here before the sun comes
up and I don't get to go home until
the sun goes down."
"I wish I could split myself up into
20,000 little pieces so each student
could have a bit of my time,"
Creighton-Neiwert said. "It's frustrat
ing at times to be in the office and not
be able to give 100 percent devotion
to every student that's in here."
Creighton-Neiwert ran into some
controversy earlier this year when stu
dent senators expressed frustration at a
typographical mistake made in lastyeafs
ASUO elections packet that cost them
$5,400 in lost wages. Creighton-Neiw
ert's name was included in a resolution
that sought to censure those responsible
for the error, but as her official duties did
not include the elections packet her
name was dropped.
One student senator, however, felt
that Creighton-Neiwert bore some re
sponsibility for the mistake.
"She overlooks a lot of things,
whether they're in her job description
or not," Sen. Colin Andries said in
early January. "She was definitely
asked about the elections process."
The measure was later dropped.
Student senators said at the time that
they had made their point and a for
mal resolution was unnecessary.
Despite that minor bump in the road,
students and co-workers praised
Creighton-Neiwert's style and dedication.
"I feel like I can ask her a question
any time of the day," ASUO Adminis
trative Assistant Shawn Rubino said.
"She's by far the best boss I've ever
had just as far as communication and
how she treats us."
Andries said Creighton-Neiwert
helped him adjust to working for the
ASUO.
"Obviously, when you're new, you
have a lot of questions and she always
had no problem answering my ques
tions," he said.
Creighton-Neiwert said she isn't
sure whether she'll continue to work
for the ASUO after she finishes her
graduate studies.
"I always joke that I don't know
what I want to do when I grow up,"
Creighton-Neiwert said.
