We were driving to the store on a rainy day last week, and my son looked out the window and told me, “Mom, there are lots of puddles of precipitation outside today.” Precipitation? What four-year-old knows what precipitation is? I asked him how he knew that, and he told me he learned about the water cycle at school. You know, I wasn’t so impressed that he simply knew how to say a big word—I was amazed that he could apply something he’d just learned to what he saw going on around him. I’m so glad I chose Challenger School for my little guy.

Hilfiger in Five Years: Firm Said to Forecast Wholesale Will Halve By Jean Palmieri NEW YORK — The long-term picture for the U.S. wholesale business at Tommy Hilfiger Corp. isn’t a pretty one. Meanwhile, the chances of Hilfiger being acquired by Wal-Mart Stores Inc. no longer seems so far-fetched; one investment banker pegged them at “50-50.” According to investment sources who have seen the company’s offering memorandum, Hilfiger is projecting that U.S. wholesale sales will drop by more than half, to just more than $400 million, by fiscal year 2009, from just under $900 million in fiscal year 2004.

  • A Report on Internships at Donovan Law and Federated Department Stores, Inc
    ABSTRACT A REPORT ON INTERNSHIPS AT DONOVAN LAW AND FEDERATED DEPARTMENT STORES, INC. by Andrew James Halfhill In order to complete the requirements for a Master of Environmental Science degree, I completed two successive six-month internships. At Donovan Law, I provided environmental and technical assistance while reviewing, retrieving, and coding documents. These documents were related to a litigation involving the Paoli Rail Yard Superfund site, which had been contaminated with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). With the SPACE department of Federated Department Stores, I assisted in the daily management of several environmental programs. These programs included asbestos management, hazardous waste management, underground and aboveground storage tank management, indoor air quality, and other programs. These internships provided me an opportunity to apply academic knowledge to real world problems, to solve problems in areas that I had only minimal prior experience, and to further develop specific skills that I can offer future employers, including program management and writing skills.

    FEDERATED DEPARTMENT STORES, INC. NATIONWIDE BRANDS. REGIONAL DECISIONS. CUSTOMERS FIRST. 2005 ANNUAL REPORT Nationwide Brands. Federated’s vision is to serve customers across America through two outstanding retail brands – Macy’s and Bloomingdale’s. Both are known for offering customers quality and fashion in an environment of exciting stores, as well as convenient online shopping sites. As Federated has evolved in recent years from a collection of regional nameplates to two nationwide brands, we have positioned ourselves to offer the customer a consistent shopping experience across the United States, as well as the convenience of gift-giving from coast to coast. Customers First. At Federated, everything we do starts with the customer. We work to strike the right balance between national branding and local implementation so that we can take full advantage of being “the best of both worlds.”On one hand, we can have two strong brands nationwide. On the other hand, Macy’s and Bloomingdale’s can be relevant to customers in each store throughout the country. Each Macy’s and Bloomingdale’s store reflects the lifestyles and needs of the customer who shops that location. We know we will succeed if we keep our eye on the customer. We need to have the right assortments, the right pricing, the right store environments and the right service everywhere we do business. At every major decision point in our business, we ask ourselves, “Is this right for the customer?” … “Are we aiming our resources directly toward her?” … “Will she benefit from our actions?” If the answer is “yes,” we’ll be making the right decision.
