Simon Kuznets Econ 490 fall 2019

Throughout my student year, I have been in various teams and experienced team structures. I joined different types of RSO, sports, and work experience. I can't say all teams had successful team organizations or cooperations, but I can think about specific team I was involved in that I can say it was successful. Among various teams I joined, "IAM" was be the most structured and very organized team in my student life. To describe what IAM does, IAM is an organization run by students and provides actual advertisement/marketing service to clients.

Each team has different roles: AE acts as communicator and coordinator of IAM by effectively guide advertisers through an insightful strategy for the needs of the clients.

'Opportunistic' means the taking of opportunities as and when they arise, regardless of planning or principle. As I grow older and older, I learned that there are sometimes whether you should be an opportunist or visionary. Usually I choose to be an opportunist when opportunity comes up to me. I think opportunity doesn't always come when I want and it might never come when I don't grab it. However, there were some moments that I didn't take opportunity even though I had a chance. To come to college and adjust to college life, there were visionary decisions I made. It was a time to decide which college I should apply and which to attend among accepted colleges. I was still undecided which college I should apply as early decision or early action. I had to be careful and cautious because if you get accepted to college applied as early decision, you must attend that school no matter what. So if there is a college that I am desperate to attend, I should apply as early ...

I have some experiences in various organizations, mostly RSO from school and from companies which provides internship. Although most of them were school RSO and students run the organizations, each organizations were different culturally, structurally, and characteristically. Not all the RSOs I have been participated undergone some changes while I was a member, but they all must have went through change, even minor one. I want to talk about my experiences in some RSO and organizations of each. When I first got into U of I and looking for RSO to join, I found several organizations that attracted my mind. It was 'Kojobs' (Korean Job Searching) and I liked the point that they provide mock interview sessions, resume critic, various study groups, and also interesting bonding activities. To get into Kojobs, there was 2 interview process being held, the first interview and the second. In the interview, President of RSO, vice president, team leader showed up to interview me and since...

Simon Kuznets (1901~1985) was an American economist and statistician who is best known for his studies of national income and its components. Prior to World War I, measures of GNP were rough guesses, at best. No government agency collected data to compute GNP, and no private economic researcher did so systematically, either. Kuznets changed all that. With work that began in the 1930s and stretched over decades, Kuznets computed national income back to 1869. He broke it down by industry, by final product, and by use. He also measured the distribution of income between rich and poor. He has another best known works which is Kuznets curve, hypothesizing that industrializing nations experience a rise and subsequent decline in income inequality. He thought economic inequality would increase as rural labor migrated to the cities, keeping wages down as workers competed for jobs. However, since Kuznets postulated this theory in the 1970s, income inequality has increased in advanced develo...
