Rod Erakovich, Ph.D., associate professor of management for the university’s undergraduate business and MBA programs, appeared in a story on WFAA Monday, Feb. 2, to discuss unconfirmed reports that Fort Worth-based RadioShack is talking about selling half the company’s stores and closing the rest.

Erakovich’s International Management class has worked with RadioShack executives on a critical thinking project over the last couple of years.

During the taped interview in the lobby of the Armstrong-Mabee Business Center, senior business major Michael Duncan, who participated in the RadioShack class project, also had the opportunity to speak with the reporter (although his comments were not included in the edited segment).
