Your analyses of the case and the creation of your written
submission should be your
own independent work. However, this is a take-home exam. So,
a little more clarity
might be needed…
I think these types of behaviors are perfectly acceptable:
• The use of any and all non-human resources (e.g., printed
materials, hypertext and
hypermedia materials, audio recordings, video records, works of
art, etc.) –
assuming that direct quotations are identified and cited and
assuming that any big
ideas from sources other than your own original analysis are
cited. You may use
any of the standard citation systems that you like, as long as it’s
one of these: APA,
MLA, Chicago, Turabian, Bluebook, Harvard, McGill, ALWD,
Tanbook,
Greenbook, Maroonbook, OSCOLA, AAA, or APSA – either in-
text or in
footnotes.
• Using the services of the UTA Writing Center – provided that
you disclose that
you are working on an examination and you provide the tutor
with a complete copy
of this exam document.

• Receiving assistance in finding sources from a university
librarian – provided that
you disclose that you are working on an examination and you
provide the librarian
with a complete copy of this exam document.
• Receiving technical assistance from the UTA OIT Help Desk,
Canvas Support,
or/and Nexis Uni Support.
• Sharing non-human resources (e.g., printed materials,

materials, audio recordings, video records, works of art, etc.)
with other students in
the class.
• Receiving non-human resources (e.g., printed materials,
from other students in
the class.
• Discussing the exam’s content with other students in the class.

Here are the relative weights of the exam components:

MANA 4320.001 (2020 Spring)
The Case of Crawford Creative Consulting1
Dr. Wayne Stanley Crawford has been an Assistant Professor of
Management at the
University of Texas at Arlington since July 1, 2015. He was
hired in 2015 based primarily
on his enormous potential for success as a social-science
researcher and human resource
management teacher – as evidenced by his existing body of
work at the time.
Like most professors in the UTA College of Business,
Crawford’s primary duties are 1)
conducting original and applied research, 2) teaching
undergraduate and graduate
management courses, and 3) service to the university, the
profession, and the broader
community. Crawford’s bona fides are described in some detail
at
https://mentis.uta.edu/explore/profile/wayne-crawford. In short:
1) His research is
considered ground-breaking. 2) His teaching is considered
excellent (so good in fact that
one semester his teaching scores were almost as good as
Graca’s).2 3) And his service is
highly valued by both his colleagues and the College
administration.

On Friday, November 1, 2019, Dr. Crawford was called into a
2:00pm meeting in the office
of Dr. Greg Frazier, Associate Dean of the UTA College of
Business. Crawford was
somewhat nervous that he was going to get in trouble for his
expletive-laden H/R metrics
rant in MANA 5329 on Monday, October 28, 2019. (A student
had captured the diatribe
on mobile-phone video and posted it to YouTube, but the video
has subsequently been
removed for violating YouTube’s terms of use.) Crawford
became even more anxious
when he entered Frazier’s office to find that the Management
department chair Dr. George
Benson and the Dean of the College of Business Harry
Dombrowski were also present.
And being a scholar of human resource management, Crawford
knew what often happened
at surprise Friday-afternoon meetings…
As Dr. Crawford was mentally planning his defense, Dr. Frazier
began speaking. Frazier
explained that the University of Texas System Board of Regents
had voted the preceding
evening to award Crawford academic tenure with the
University. For a couple reasons,
Crawford assumed that Frazier was joking; the reasons were: 1)
Crawford’s humility, and
1 While some of the characters in this case are based closely on
real people, the operative facts are

entirely fictional.
2 Wow!
https://mentis.uta.edu/explore/profile/wayne-crawford
MANA 4320.001 (2020 Spring)
2) the fact that he hadn’t even applied for tenure. So, while the
three administrators began
their congratulating and back-slapping, Crawford could only
wonder what their game was.
After seeing the signed and sealed letter from the Chancellor of
the UT System, Crawford
finally realized that they were on the level – that he had
actually received tenure!
Over the next few days, a number of colleagues from around the
College had called and
texted Crawford to offer their congratulations, but all of their
calls and texts went
unanswered. (This was very out-of-character; Crawford
religiously responded to all
communications from colleagues on the same day and usually
within the same hour.)
Dr. Crawford limped into the office at 4:45pm on Monday,
November 4, 2019, wearing
gray sweat pants, a black “FBI: Female Body Inspector” t-shirt,
very dark sunglasses, and

carrying two banana bags (one connected to his left arm
intravenously). When Graca heard
Crawford’s door open, he immediately made his way down from
COBA-231 to COBA-
212.
After congratulating Crawford, Graca went on to opine how
wonderful it is that Crawford
would now be able to do the kind of research that he really
wanted to do (and would be
able to more actively engage with the administration of the
Management department’s
graduate program) without the tenure-earning clock ticking in
the back in the back of his
brain. Crawford’s haze cleared a little bit, and he got a big
smile on his face. After a bit of
a pause, Crawford responded: “Mute that noise, son! Now it’s
time for Daddy to make
some coin.” Graca was taken somewhat aback – mostly because
Crawford was now
apparently referring to himself as “Daddy.”
Crawford went on to explain that he would no longer be
devoting every single waking
moment to his aggressive, critically important, already ground-
breaking, and potentially
paradigm-shifting research agenda (as he had done for the past
five years). Instead, he
would begin taking full advantage of UT System Regents’ Rule
30104: Conflict of Interest,
Conflict of Commitment, and Outside Activities. (The rule
permits UTA faculty members

to engage in outside work for pay under certain circumstances
and with certain limitations.)
Specifically, Crawford planned to launch a consulting firm that
would take out-sourced
work primarily in the area of human resource business analytics
from local firms.
https://www.utsystem.edu/board-of-regents/rules/30104-
conflict-of-interest-conflict-of-commitment-and-outside-
activities
activities
MANA 4320.001 (2020 Spring)
Crawford’s initial estimate is that he could work on his
consulting business about ten hours
each week and could charge about $1,000.00 per hour for his
services. This would allow
him to gross an addition $500,000.00 each year (in addition to
his UTA salary).
After getting some basic legal advice, Crawford decided that a
Texas Limited-Liability
Company would be the best business organization for him. And
“Crawford Creative
Consulting, LLC” (“CCC”) was born. But after analyzing his
expected margin and tax
liabilities, Crawford opined to Graca, “That’s still chump-
change, Yo! There’s got to be

some way for me to quintuple that…” And eventually his
scheme was hatched:
Despite everything he says in class, to prospective clients, to
his spouse whenever she’s
contemplating leaving him, to his daughter every night in lieu
of a typical bed-time story,
and to anyone else who’ll listen (and even some who won’t),
Crawford knows in his heart
that human resource business analytics is really just a mere
shell game. You see, all that
really happens in the H/R analytics “black box” is that the
consultant: 1) gets a data set
from a firm in a particular format, 2) runs it through
(university-owned) software that spits
it out in a different format, 3) makes some pretty graphs, and
finally 4) plagiarizes an
“executive summary.” According to Crawford, “any monkey
could do it.” And that became
the rub! Crawford would train some “monkeys” (as he calls
them) (upper-class UTA
undergraduates and UTA graduate students) to do the work. In
this way: by hiring four
“intern-analysts,” Crawford could indeed nearly quintuple
CCC’s productivity and (more
importantly) nearly quintuple his profit.
Now to find “the monkeys.” Dr. Crawford created a “job
description” and “job
specification,” and posted his “internship” in the Handshake
database, a service of the UTA
Lockheed Martin Career Development Center. (By “created,” I

mean that he mostly cut-
and-pasted something from O*NET.) A copy of the posting is
included in Appendix B.
You’ll note that Dr. Crawford considers the interns to be
“independent contractors.” He
did this because he wants to avoid having to pay half of the
social security tax…
Because the response to Dr. Crawford’s posting was so
overwhelming (over 600
applicants), he wanted to use a simple (and free) assessment to
shrink his pool some. So,
he used a ten-key speed typing test. He then interviewed the ten
highest-scoring applicants

MANA 4320.001 (2020 Spring)
and selected the four from whom he seemed to get the best
“vibe.” Each of the selected
four had a different motivation for wanting the internship:
1) Mariana was a 4.0 UTA senior Management & Information
Systems & Statistics
triple-major. Mariana wanted to attend graduate school in the
UTA Management

department after graduation, and she thought the internship
would give her a leg-up
in understanding business research methodologies. And it
wasn’t lost on Mariana
that Dr. Crawford was also the chair of the Management
department graduate studies
committee, or that he could use his influence to ensure her
admission to the graduate
program and a sweet financial aid package.
2) Ned was a 3.2 UTA senior Management & Marketing double-
major. He really only
cared about human resource management, and he was a self-
described “H/R nerd.”
He only added the Marketing major because UTA still doesn’t
have a BBA in human
resource management and never offers its upper-level
management electives at
convenient times (with the exception of MANA 4320 –
“Employment Law” – of
course). Ned wanted to get an entry-level job as a human
resources generalist after
graduation, and he thought he could use the internship to satisfy
the “experience”
requirements of the entry-level H/R professional certifications
and to generally make
himself more marketable on the entry-level H/R market.
3) Omar was a 2.25 UTA Real Estate major. He had actually
applied for the internship
by mistake. But he went ahead and took the ten-key test anyway
since he knew he
would crush it. Which he did! He had the highest score of all
600 test-takers – 25,000

KPM. And he and Dr. Crawford “totally vibed,” so he accepted
the internship.
4) Peaches was a graduate student in the Management
department. She liked the
analytics stuff well enough, but it was definitely not her
passion. Peaches was an
international student at UTA, and her particular visa did not
permit her to work for
pay – at all – while she was a student in the U.S. But she really
needed the money.
And she knew Dr. Crawford well enough to know that he wasn’t
a stickler for silly
things like I-9 forms. The bottom line is that she was just in it
for the money.
