Anderson School of Management Helps Teach Students About the Perils of the Information Superhighway
Class allows graduate students to teach students at local schools about protecting their identity.
It's a different world with the information superhighway at our fingertips. Not only is the
technology beneficial in many ways, it can also be detrimental, especially when it comes to your
identity. You've read the news. Tweens and teens upload personal information on myspace or facebook.
That information is now permanently available and could end up in the wrong hands.

Anderson School, IRS Conduct Mock Fraud Investigations
The Phoenix Field Office located in Albuquerque, New Mexico hosted an Adrian Jr. Project at Anderson on November 14, 2008. Students learned to apply investigative techniques and conduct interviews in the mock fraud investigation. The students' response was very positive, generating enthusiasm and interest in the investigative process. Agents from Albuquerque and Las Cruces helped to facilitate the event.
Anderson Students Talk to Teens about Identity Theft
As part of a graduate course in Information Assurance this spring, groups of students at UNM's Anderson School of Management conducted presentations at local high schools to help raise awareness on protecting information and identity. Students presented a pair of presentations titled Risk of Joining Social Networks and Technology Awareness at Albuquerque High School, La Cueva High School, Home School Coop and Washington Middle School.
