With the list in hand, I called the alwnnae/i and sent them each a reswne. A week later, I received a call from Henry Smyth of Coutts & Co. in New York. We discussed Coutts & Co., a pri­ vate investment bank, and the type of work they engage in. When I arrived in New York, I met with Mr. Smyth. He in­ terviewed me and then gave me some read­ ing material to familiarize me with the banking world. As an introduction to the investment aspect of this bank, I began reading the Wall Street Journal. Some of the projects I worked on for Coutts & Co. dealt with the Latin Ameri­ can Money Market Fund that they are de­ veloping. I met with some representatives from aleading Mexican investment fum to create a model portfolio for the fund . In ad­ dition, I constructed a Lotus-based matrix to analyze this fund's competitiveness with other Latin American funds. I also be­ gan organizing the fund's Risk Factors sec­ tion.

I knocked on doors in a hous­ ing project, Cohen Way, talked at some length with residents abo~t the Community Housing Corporatton and about the grant. I got to know a couple of the kids fairly well and they walked with me whenever I door-knocked. The bottom line is that I spoke with and learned from people I would likely never have had contact with, coming from a white/surburban back­ ground as I do. If I had only read about HUD's history in books, and learned about efforts to change cur­ rent policies and situations from arti­ cles, I would know nothing about the very important and personal side of these policies. After talking with people about their concerns with the grant, I found that I believed in it; I really think it will help. So much so, that CSL is written into the grant application.
