U of A OFF TO THE RACES

Doug Reed is Director of the Race Track Industry Program at the UofA.   All instructors in this somewhat unique but internationally known program have worked in the industry.  For example, Doug worked from cleaning trash at racetracks up to managing racetracks in major regions, mostly on the East Coast and Midwest.   Students choose to follow one of two tracks: equine breeding or racetrack management.   The program annually hosts the largest conference for the race track industry in Tucson, and students who organize and run the conference have a one-of-a-kind opportunity to network with potential employers from all over the country.  Doug has been with the University since 1994 and holds an MBA.  In an entertaining  Jeopardy-style interaction, John Swift and Tom Mangold answered most of the questions.  What does that tell the rest of us?  submitted by Jane Howell
