When Prof. Richardson asks you at the end of the class "did you learn something useful and interesting" - this is not an empty comment - it is a real attempt to make sure that every class is useful and something you can use in the "real world" to get a job, or create a job and make money.
So, to "give props" to one of my former students.. the logo to the right is from Lester Sabliano, a MGTD06 student several years ago who, with some friends, founded a Toronto based clothing company that is slowly becoming very popular - they have a great website and are steadily growing their product line 
- you could do something like this too - just pay attention, do the readings and learn as much as you can

The calendar may say this is a 4 month course but in reality it is 2 1/2 months cause we only have 2 classes in Sept and no classes in Dec so everything is jam packed up in October and November
