Sandra A. Slaughter and Chris Forman are moving from Carnegie Mellon's Tepper School of Business to join the information technology management faculty of Georgia Tech College of Management. They will start this month.

"We're delighted by our success in attracting these excellent scholars from one of the nation's top-ranked IT departments," says Steve Salbu, dean of Georgia Tech College of Management.
