SGT US ARMY, WORLD WAR I

"George Filipetti, professor emeritus of economics, died at the age of 75 on August 22, 1965, in LaJolla, California. He was appointed to the faculty of the School of business Administration in 1930, coming to the University from the faculty of the school of Business of Columbia University where he received his doctorate in 1925. He specialized in Scientific Management and was recognized as a tower of strength in the fight to make management truly scientific, after this phrase had been exposed to shoddy misrepresentation between the wars. His book Industrial Management in Transition is considered to be a classic in management literature and has been translated into several foreign languages. Born in New Jersey, August 21, 1890, he became a staunch midwesterner, urging and leading many Minnesota firms in the adoption of modern management methods which would keep them competitive in national markets. To his colleages, he was a warm friend, a friendly critic, and a staunch supporter of progressive professional education." [Resolution adopted by a rising vote of the University Senate at its meeting Dec. 9, 1965; University of Minnesota, Minneapolis]
