The Sidney Olympics And Nbc's Bonanza, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

Like all of you, I have been worrying a great deal lately about the future of Olympic Television Sponsorship. You can appreciate my relief this week when Dick Ebersol, The Sun King of NBC Sports, announced that his network was about to negotiate a new sponsorship arrangement with John Hancock, the company not the man, for the Sydney games.

The Changing Geography Of Sport In America Since Wwii, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

The heavy presence of the National Football League in Florida on Saturday, three Florida teams involved in two playoff games in the state, may or may not be a record. It is however an indication of how much the geography of sport has changed since the end of World War II. These changes are seen not just in Florida but all across the American landscape and are a reminder of how much sport has changed over the past half-century.

Losing Money Going To Bowl Games, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

With the barrage of bowl games these past several days one can only marvel at the willingness of sponsors and cities to pay out millions of dollars to universities to provide a few hours of entertainment during the holidays. Last year the University of Wisconsin took away $12.5M for the Big Ten from the Badger's Rose Bowl appearance. The participants at this year's Sugar Bowl, allegedly the national championship game, will take away between $11M and $13M each. Moving down the pecking order to near the bottom the payouts run to about a million dollars.

How Do Information And Communication Technologies Reshape Work? Evidence Form The Residential Real Estate Industry, Kevin Crowston, Steve Sawyer, Rolf Wigand, Marcel Allbritton

School of Information Studies - Faculty Scholarship

We are exploring how ICT use affects the work lives of real estate agents, the process of selling/buying houses and the overall structure of the residential real estate industry. Earlier stages of our work involved intensive field research on how real estate agents use ICT. In this paper, we report on the design and analysis of a pilot survey of 868 agents intended to investigate their ICT use more generally. Analysis of the 153 responses to this survey sheds light on how ICT use supports information control, enables process support, and helps agents to extend and maintain their social capital.

Genre In Social Process : The Executive Secretary In Business Environment, Suseela Nair

Student Works (2000-2009)

This is a study on genre as a social process in relation to the role of the executive secretary in the business environment. The study examines the way in which linguistics, drawn into the realm of the social sciences, serves as a 'tool' for the analysis of the role of the executive secretary in a business organization. The study provides evidence on how language, emerging from the context and linguistic symbols, shapes persons and behaviour in the work environment of the executive secretary. The focus is on talk interactions of the executive secretary in naturally occurring circumstances. The main talk …
