FORDLANDIA

As preparation for our 9-day trip to the Dominican Republic, Dr. Gangaram Singh has asked that we read Greg Gradin’s Fordlandia. The book chronicles the trials and tribulations that Henry Ford had to deal with in his ambitious bid to export America to the Amazon.

The SMBA ’11 class needs to finish Fordlandia, write a 3-page personal reflection on the book, as well as prepare a class presentation regarding International Business.

The class will be boarding a flight to Atlanta in 24 hours and will be in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic by the afternoon of Thursday, June 17. Follow the SMBA ’11 DR adventures on the blog.
