Off to school shortly - The Management class with the interesting professor. I just opened my binder to look something up and I remembered that I *have* indeed taken notes in his class - specifically for posting here. Notes with an "*" are actually relevant to the course.



The industrial revolution
James Watt and the Steam Engine
Einstein's theory about objects at rest
Yeats poem "Jerusalem" and Dickens' poem about the slums of London
The American Civil War
Breach Loaded Muskets and Rifle Cannons
The Holy Roman Empire and the Catholic Church
*Taylor's theory of Scientific Management
*Time and motion studies
Mining in sudbury
*Standard operating procedures
Train people (People on trains)
Roger Smith getting drunk in Michegin
Ford's assembly line
Charlie Chaplin movies
The space shuttle and the joke about 3 chimps and a man
Back to Charlie Chaplin
Back to Ford again "Ford was a weird guy"
*Weber's theory on social anthropology
Protestant work ethics
*back to Weber again
Pearl Harbour
Pachendale
Neuenberg (Excuse the spellings of these)
The explanation of how the term "red tape" came into being
*Fayol's principles
and then a 10 minute break, at which time I stopped taking notes.



Keep in mind, this course is called Management Planning and Control. Some of the stuff, sure I can sort of see a correlation on... Ford's assembly line perhaps, but Charlie Chaplin's movies? That one's a bit of a stretch.
