Behind the glitter and excitement in Las Vegas are industries dedicated to supplying entertainment to customers. Operations addresses the supply side of business, including how products are produced and how services are supplied. This course goes behind the scenes in Las Vegas to observe and analyze the operations involved in performing this supply function. This course presents an opportunity to observe and study the entertainment industry including strategy formation and decision-making that are quite unique. The entertainment comes in various forms. The underlying driver is certainly gaming, but the industries surrounding the various forms of gambling have become major profit centers separate from the millions made on the casino floors. During a one-week visit to Las Vegas, students will observe and study some of the major operating industries that comprise the broad scope of entertainment in this city. Although the Operations Management models, techniques and strategies in this field are applicable anywhere, Las Vegas is the epicenter of the industry. Topics The specific industries that will be studied are: • Hotel/Resort operations • Gaming • Marketing strategy and consumer relations • Analytics and technology • Real estate development • Food/Beverage operations • Nightlife, nightclubs and the Theatre of Las Vegas Design of the Course The class will have an opportunity to tour the major entertainment centers of Las Vegas, and have presentations and question and answer sessions concerning the back-of-the-house operations strategies in each industry.

    THE POWER TO ENDURE 2009 ANNUAL REPORT NO MATTER HOW TURBULENT THE TIMES, NO MATTER HOW CHALLENGING THE ENVIRONMENT, THE PEOPLE OF MGM MIRAGE HAVE SUMMONED THE STRENGTH TO ENDURE. LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN DEAR SHAREHOLDERS Let me be clear: 2009 was a demanding year. It demanded our courage, our strength and our resolve. Throughout what were undoubtedly the most diffi cult economic circumstances of our generation, your Company demonstrated the courage of conviction, the courage to persevere, and the courage to endure. It is said that the greatest measure of character comes when we are pushed to the very brink – that moment when we feel we have nothing left, and then reach deeper to fi nd just that much more. THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THE EMPLOYEES OF YOUR COMPANY DID IN 2009. Like most, ever since I was young I have defi ned courage in traditional ways. The word evoked images of a soldier taking up arms for his/her country and of a police offi cer staring down a criminal with a gun. But this past year, I learned a new form of courage. I was privileged to witness the courage of our employees as they faced this recession head-on. While all of us were reading the fatalistic headlines written by journalists and analysts who had written off our industry, the employees of your Company were coming to work, supporting one another through extraordinary personal and professional circumstances, clocking in on time, going the extra mile and delivering a level of exceptional service that made our guests feel special.
