CORVALLIS - Nationally known economist Ken Stone will speak at Oregon
State University on Wednesday, May 26, about the economic impacts of
establishing "big-box" retail stores in both small and larger
communities.

The presentation, sponsored by the OSU Rural Studies Program, will
begin at 7:30 p.m. in the Engineering and Construction Auditorium at
LaSells Stewart Center. It is free and open to the public.

Stone, a professor emeritus of economics at Iowa State University, is
one of the first university researchers in the United States to study
the effects of supercenter type retail outlets - including Wal-Mart,
Lowes and Home Depot stores - on local economies and nearby
communities.

The economist will cover several topics during his talk at OSU,
including studies conducted in recent years of Wal-Mart supercenters
coming into communities in Texas, Mississippi and Iowa.

An expert in the areas of retail trade and business management, Stone
has delivered more than 1,000 presentations to community groups and
trade associations throughout North America. Stone and his research
have also been featured by several national television network news
outlets and by the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Time,
Newsweek and U.S. News & World Report.

Stone's presentation at OSU will be recorded to allow later viewing
by those who are unable to attend the live event. Videotape
recordings will be available, and a recording of the presentation
will be accessible online in streaming video format. For more
information contact Bruce Sorte, OSU Rural Studies Program,
telephone: 541-737-5909.
