MGT 525 Management Theory & Business Law

Project Part A

Delta State University has assigned the management of the trademarked mascots of the University (the Fighting Okra, the Statesman, and the Lady Statesman) to the College of Business.  You have been retained by the College of Business as a consultant to make recommendations and/or proposals for the mascots of the University.  Your recommendations and/or proposals should be developed as if they will be presented to the Dean and the Chairs of the Divisions in the College, and you should remain mindful that this will be a small business.  After studying the chapters corresponding to each Assignment, complete that Assignment and submit it through Canvas no later than 11:59 pm on the stated due date.  Your submission for this Assignment should not exceed three pages.  Your submission should be developed and written at the graduate school level with any sources properly documented.  After submitting an assignment, you will receive a grade and a critique from your two professors: Mr. Will Wood for the management issues and Dr. Clint Wood for the legal issues.  Your response to the critiques should be incorporated in the final Assignment.  (Parts A-E of this project is worth 50 points each and the final project is worth 200 points.)

                                                                

NOTE:  All your recommendations, proposals, and submissions become the sole and exclusive property of The College of Business at Delta State University.
