Weekly Business Roundup for Friday, May 25, 2007
Podcasts: Friday, May 25, 2007
All colleges and universities market themselves in one way or another, but rarely is it scrutinized as thoroughly and as publicly as what we're seeing at Case Western Reserve University. Take the logo for example - to some, it is a white pattern on a blue background, but to others it is a fat man carrying a surf board. The school has decided it's time for a change and it's assembled a committee to come up with a new logo. For some perspective on this marketing makeover, ideastream's Eric Wellman spoke with analyst Scott Roulston.

Kucinich to Hold Hearing Over Foreclosures

Weekly Business Roundup for Friday, May 18, 2007
Podcasts: Friday, May 18, 2007
It was more than 40 years ago that President Lyndon Johnson declared "an unconditional war on poverty." Since then, the government has implemented a variety of programs, the country has experienced steady economic growth - and yet, 12% of Americans remain below the poverty level. Some economists at the Federal Reserve's 4th District were intrigued by this persistence of poverty. The district - after all - includes two of the nation's ten poorest major cities: Cleveland and Cincinnati. ideastream's Eric Wellman will discuss the facts with Fairport Asset Management's Scott Roulston Friday during Morning Edition.

Changing Face of the Auto Industry
The Sound of Ideas: Wednesday, May 16, 2007
The auto industry sure is changing. For $7.4 billion, a private equity company is taking a big chunk of Detroit... private. On The Sound of Ideas, we'll try to answer some of the questions raised by the recent deal to acquire Chrysler - namely, what does this mean for the future of the auto industry? Also, while the Big Three shrink their market share, Northeast Ohio's biotech industry is growing its share of venture capital. Be sure to join us Wednesday morning at nine on 90.3.
