On Monday, December 15, 2008, the Berry Center hosted a panel discussion of the current financial and economic situation in the United States.
Panelists included Thomas Anderson, CIMA, Vice President, Merrill
Lynch (Cedar Rapids); Todd Knoop, Ph.D., associate professor, Economics
and Business; and Mark Zinkula, U.S. CEO, Legal and General Investment
Management.
After a brief recap of the economic events leading up the unstable markets and the housing bubble bursting, panelists fielded questions from the capacity audience. Students, faculty, staff, and community members vigorously engaged the panelists in discussion, exceeding the time scheduled for the event.
