Dr. Platt’s current research focuses in two areas: the prediction of corporate bankruptcy and financial distress; and how cold calling during class discussions affects student preparation for class, frequency of participation, comfort with class participation, and learning from class discussion. “Professor Platt has shown tremendous dedication and contribution to research, teaching, leadership, and mentoring junior faculty,” continued Acting Dean Lane. “Her dedication to the classroom environment and our faculty’s research is unparalleled.” The seven new full-time faculty members who joined CBA staff are: • Alvaro Cuervo-Cazurra, Associate Professor of International Business and Strategy – PhD, Behavioral and Policy Sciences, Massachusetts Institute of Technology University • Annique Un, Associate Professor of International Business and Strategy – PhD, Strategic and International Management, Massachusetts Institute of Technology University • Ronen Gal-Or, Assistant Professor of Accounting – PhD, Finance, University of Arizona • Tiantian Gu, Assistant Professor of Finance – PhD, Finance, University of Wisconsin-Madison • Robert R.
