2. Define the service package of your college or university. What is its strongest element? What is
ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS
its weakest one?

The categories with examples are:

Supporting facility - ZAS ZAS
location, buildings, labs, parking Facilitating goods –

ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS
At Indiana University and the University of Southern California, among their strongest ele

ments are their business schools and their Operations Management programs (of course)
ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS
.Both also have very dedicated alumni networks. A weak element of Indiana University is it
ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS ZAS
s weak football program; for USC, weak elements are on-campus parking and housing.

3. What service industry has impressed you the most with its innovativeness?

Our vote goes to cruise lines which have introduced such onboard innovations as wave m

achines for belly boarding and rock climbing walls, as well as all sorts of other amenities to
