    Saint Joseph’s University, Summer 2010 Achieving a First: SJU’s Personal Connections to Professor and Students Doneene Damon ‘89 Rebuilding Haiti Feed the Hungry FROM THE PRESIDENT A little more than five years ago, Saint Joseph’s University embarked on Plan 2010: The Path to Preeminence, an ambitious strategic plan that would enable us to be recognized as the Northeast’s preeminent Catholic comprehensive university. Now, with so many of Plan 2010’s initiatives accomplished, we look forward to the coming decade from a position of academic and financial strength. Our academic position has been affirmed by the tremendous achievements of our talented faculty and students. U.S. News & World Report recently ranked the Erivan K. Haub School of Business Executive MBA program 20th in the nation. Additionally, over the past two years, four graduating seniors in the College of Arts and Sciences were awarded Fulbright English Teaching Assistantships, among other prestigious scholarships. There is also wonderful news about graduates enrolled in the Jesuit Volunteer Corps (JVC). Saint Joseph’s tied with Gonzaga University for having the highest number of alumni participants in the JVC. I am immensely proud that 16 alumni have committed to one year of living and working for others. Our successes do not mean that we will rest on our laurels, however. Saint Joseph’s is blessed with a robust planning culture, and after more than a year of intensive data gathering and planning, a framework for Plan 2020: Gateway to the Future has crystallized. The bold steps we take as we continue to expand our goals will focus on Plan 2020’s five initiatives: academic distinction and a transformative student experience; mission and diversity; global and community engagement; alumni involvement; and financial health.

  • Review of the Competition Between Diy Store Chains in Hungary
    Delhi Business Review ? Vol. 11, No. 1 (January - June 2010) REVIEW OF THE COMPETITION BETWEEN DIY STORE CHAINS IN HUNGARY Zsófia Balló* T is only fifteen years that the first Do It Yourself (DIY) store opened in Hungary. It was then a novelty that building materials became available not only at the building material depos, which I previously had the monopoly on the field, but at home decor stores, too. However, Hungarians quickly grew into the habit of ‘getting everything under the same roof’. Thus, just as the hypermarkets which sell fast moving consumer goods, DIY stores chains also began to develop dynamically. In this article after highlighting the competitors, researcher will determine the market and the target group; then researcher move on to analyze the coverage of DIY store chains in Hungary, along with the range of services they offer, and their marketing activity. Researcher will devote special attention to the characteristics of high marketing value that make a DIY chain unique on the present market and deliver advantage in competition for long term. Key Words: Do It Yourself Store, Consumer Satisfaction. Introduction It is only fifteen years since the first international Do it yourself (DIY) store opened in Hungary. It was then a novelty for building materials to become available not only at building material depots (widely known as Tüzép), which previously had the monopoly, but at home improvement stores too. Stores with huge floor areas selling fast moving consumer’s goods (FMCG) also appeared in the early 1990s, so the idea of stores offering the products found in various specialist shops in the same space was completely new for consumers.
