The MGMT 451 class at Purdue University is a class focused on Strategic Management. During the semester the students are assigned a day to play Acquire just before the lectures covering mergers and acquisitions. They then write reflection papers on the game and the strategic decisions made during the game dealing with the mergers of the hotel chains. The two videos in this section are from student groups. They are focusing on game play, and not the classroom aspect of the project.
