guest lecturer tonight from 7:00 pm - 8:15 pm in ACB 214. Mr. Gould
is the President of Gould Asset Management, an investment advisory
firm based in Claremont. All students are welcome to attend and we
strongly encourage club members to come as Mr. Gould has a very rich
background in the industry. A bio from Gould Asset Management's
