The University of Cincinnati Carl H. Lindner College of Business presents the

22nd Annual E. Leonard Arnoff Memorial Lecture

on the practice of management science.

The lecture begins at 7 p.m., Thursday, April 11, at the Lindner College of Business' Robert and Rose Fealy Auditorium, Room 112, in the Carl H. Lindner Hall on UC’s campus.

Cynthia Barnhart – Ford Professor of Engineering and associate dean of the MIT School of Engineering, and professor of civil and environmental engineering and engineering systems director of Transportation at MIT – is the guest speaker. Her talk is titled “Congestion and Delays in the National Air Transpiration System.”
