As this issue of the Bulletin went to press, we learned of the deaths of two of the School's most distinguished emeriti faculty members. C. Roland Christensen, Robert Walmsley University Professor, Emeritus, died on August 28 of complications following open heart surgery. Christensen, 80, was one of the founders of the field of business strategy and was long regarded as the world's leading authority on case-method teaching. On August 26, Raymond Vernon, the Herbert F. Johnson Professor of International Business Management, Emeritus, died of cancer at the age of 85. Vernon was an expert on multinational corporations and international business and held a joint appointment at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, where he was Clarence Dillon Professor of International Affairs, Emeritus. Tributes to both professors will appear in the December issue of the Bulletin.
