"Rule No.1: Never lose money. Rule No.2: Never forget rule No.1." -Warren Buffett

The CSULB Student Managed Investment Fund (SMIF) was created in August of 1995 to
provide its members with a unique and valuable experience in managing an investment
portfolio consisting of actual monetary assets, rather than the "paper" transactions
traditionally used in investment courses. SMIF is an honors level class, open to students of
Finance by invitation of the College of Business Administration, Department of Finance at
CSULB. The program was instituted to expose its members to a degree of "real world"
experience by providing hands-on training in securities analysis and portfolio management,
and exposing its members to career-enhancing opportunities within the investments industry.

The student managed investment fund portfolio is managed by a combination of senior-level
undergraduate students concentrating in investments and second year MBA students
specializing in finance.  Students enrolled in this “honors level” course have taken a number
of required prerequisite courses, and are subject to approval by the SMIF advisors.
