Andrasik Named Chair of UM Psychology Dept. -
Wednesday, September 29, 2010
Frank Andrasik has been named chairman of the University of Memphis Department of Psychology.
Hometown: Dayton, Ohio
Education: Received Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Ohio University in 1979 after completing an internship at Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic (Department of Psychiatry) at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine.
Family: My wife, Candy; three daughters, Meghan, Kelly and Holly; one son, Dodge; and two young granddaughters, Harper and Rhiley.
Favorite quote: From my now deceased father: “Anything worth doing is worth doing well.”
Activities you enjoy outside of work: Several. Dining out and going to movies, plays, or concerts. We’ve already been to see Sheryl Crow at Mud Island. Anything outside and exercising. Before hip surgery I enjoyed running, but now I am confined to walking.
Who has had the greatest influence on you? I need to mention two. First would be my father, from whom I received my strong work ethic. Second would be professor Kay Deaux, who helped me find my way in psychology.
Why did you pursue a career in psychology? Like many undergraduates, I struggled to find my niche. I took a class with professor Kay Deaux, a well-known social psychologist, and afterwards she invited me to work in her laboratory.
In seconds, I was hooked on psychology. I needed only to find the right area of specialization, which for me was clinical psychology.
What attracted you to the University of Memphis? Many things. The quality of the faculty, students and staff. The exciting projects being pursued. The many possibilities to collaborate with folks on and off campus. The opportunity to help make a very strong program even more so.
What do you consider your greatest professional accomplishments? Contributing to the knowledge base of psychology and the professional development of students and more junior colleagues.
What do you most enjoy about your work? Working with students and seeing their eyes light up when they get excited by psychology.

Mississippi Makes Bid For Pinnacle HQ -
Friday, July 16, 2010
Add Olive Branch, Mississippi, to the list of locations, along with Downtown and the area around Memphis International Airport, that Pinnacle Airlines is considering for a larger corporate headquarters.
The Memphis-based air passenger carrier is being wooed by the state of Mississippi to consolidate its operations in the same city that just plucked another Memphis business opportunity away from the Bluff City – McKesson, which decided earlier this year to put a distribution facility and 300 jobs in Olive Branch.
“Governor Barbour and the state of Mississippi offered a very generous package of incentives to entice Pinnacle to locate in Olive Branch,” reads a statement from Pinnacle. “We are impressed with their efforts and we continue to give the proposal serious consideration.
“The state of Tennessee and the City of Memphis continue to work very hard to make our continued growth here feasible. It’s no secret that we are looking at locations in downtown Memphis and near Memphis International Airport. The move would have to allow us to consolidate our operations into a single location, and to cut our operating and occupancy costs.”
All parties involved are still far away from hearing the music cued for the closing credits on a deal. An effort has been under way, for example, to woo Pinnacle into Downtown’s One Commerce Square, which took a big blow with word several weeks ago Glankler Brown PLLC is vacating 39,000 square feet there later this year.
Mark Jenkins of Commercial Alliance Management LLC, the firm that leases and manages One Commerce Square, told The Daily News last month there may be hope yet for a deal that brings Pinnacle to the iconic Downtown tower.
“We are very optimistic about the opportunity that we have with Pinnacle as well as some other major users,” Jenkins said.

Economies of Scale -

If financing is tight, then fewer construction projects are started.

And if there’s a decreased need for architectural firms, then some companies are forced to cut staff and many more to implement hiring freezes.
