Campus coordinator is Dr. George Wyatt, WOSC professor of economics. "Our economic system is perhaps the most complex in the world," Hathaway said. "It depends on well-informed consumers, labor, govern ment and business leaders. The more our people know about it, the better they can make It work for them. "In one week's time Busi ness Week offers students and teachers more understanding of the business of business than many people learn in a lifetime." Faculty for Business Week is drawn from throughout the state's business community and curriculm offers an In sight into basic economics, comparisons of the American free enterprise system with those in other nations, the interdependence of the Amer ican system and personal freedom, the present and future economies of Oregon and career opportunities for young people who are the leaders of tomorrow, accor ing to Hathaway. More than 100 business leaders from the smallest to the largest business firms in the state deliver lectures, conduct seminars and discus sions with students-teacher groups. Students and teachers are assigned to company groups, each of which is counseled throughout the week by a volunteer on-cam-pus business advisor. During the week each company chooses a product to produce and market or a service to provide to the consuming public. They organize firms and compete among themsel ves for profitability through a simulated computerized man agement game. "This management game is a hands-on learning ex perience that becomes more sophisticated daily as partici pants learn more about the system and what makes it tick," explained Hathaway.
