Nov. 28–The California State University, Chico, School of Business ranks No. 10 among 500 universities with exceptional business schools that have a strong national reputation and international links.
The annual rankings are done by Eduniversal, a Paris-based educational consulting organization that ranks business schools in various categories worldwide.
The Chico business school moved up from 21st last year. In 2008, it was 50th.
Rankings are based on a combination of academic factors, including a vote among deans at business schools around the world.
“We work hard to develop and deliver outstanding programs, and we know the importance of building productive local, national and international partnerships,” said Willie Hopkins, dean of the CSUC School of Business.
22% of capital city office space vacant
Sacramento had a 22 percent office vacancy rate in this year’s third quarter, according to global commercial real estate firm Jones Lang LaSalle.
The company noted that the recent decline of McDonough Holland & Allen PC, once Sacramento’s second-largest law firm, resulted in the loss of 60,000 square feet of office space in the Bank of the West Tower at 500 Capitol Mall, in downtown Sacramento.
Local “tenants are still in a general strategic holding pattern,” according to the Jones Lang LaSalle quarterly report.
The long-term national outlook was more rosy.
“We believe 2011 will be the year that the private sector takes the baton and starts to drive growth,” said Ben Breslau, a Jones Lang LaSalle researcher. “Corporations are flush with cash and will continue to spend and start to hire.”

I will let you know how they turn out.
Horseshoe Lake is located near the golf course in Bidwell Park, Chico, California. It was constructed about 1930 as a reservoir to provide storage of water diverted by gravitational flow from Big Chico Creek for irrigating the golf course. Its original purpose was abandoned after a few years when it became apparent that maintaining the diversion flume cost more than pumping water. Horseshoe Lake has remained as a shallow, turbid pond, fed by winter and spring runoff, gradually losing water between wet seasons, but never going completely dry. Horseshoe Lake water is usually turbid and quite green due to a dense bloom of bluegreen bacteria. This water bloom is undoubtedly a result of the large quantity of nutrients entering the lake in the feces of the domestic ducks and geese.
The fishing at Horseshoe Lake is alright, mainly an abundance of channel catfish with the occasional , bluegill, large-mouth bass.
Supposedly there are black and white crappie, carp, brown and black bullhead catfish, and small-mouth bass.
