(October 2, 2006) Over and Over and Over What Being Reminded of Niroomand’s Grant Work Actually Reminds Us "At every opportunity to do so, the CoB’s administration reminds CoB faculty about the United States Department of Education Title VI-B Grant work being done by the CoB’s Associate Dean Farhang Niroomand. The most recent example comes from the fall 2006 issue of Joint Venture, the CoB’s fundraising magazine. That example is depicted below:...".

(October 16, 2006) USMPRIDE’s New “Your Value-to-Niroomand’s Value” Calculator "CoB faculty often wonder just how Dean Harold Doty and his administrative team view the value of their service to the College and to the University. To assist CoB faculty in quantifying their value to the CoB, USMPRIDE has developed the new “Your Value-to-Niroomand’s Value” Calculator.

Thus, the new calculator computes your individual 2006 merit raise as a percentage of Niroomand’s 2006 merit raise. The results are presented alphabetically in Table 1 below:...".
