Beanstockd UNC Case Study

Knight 2008 News Challenge Winner

The University of North Carolina's marketing strategy course has elected to use The Beanstockd Game as the case study for their fall 2009 course! The Beanstockd Team will be traveling down to Chapel Hill, North Carolina to meet the students, present all the ins and outs of Beanstockd, and answer any questions they have during the course of the semester.

At the end of the year, the students will present to Beanstockd their recommendations for a course of action in both marketing and revenue generation for the Beanstockd Game and Beanstockd at large.

We are flattered and excited about this opportunity! We fully expect to actually implement many of the ideas and strategies presented by the bright, creative, and talented students at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill this fall.

Please don't say "arguably" about science maintaining higher fact-verifying standards [than journalism]. The scientific community unequivocally does. It's not arguable.
