'Trading Room'
New York, October 19, 2004
Hal McIntyre, managing partner of The Summit Group and Securities Operations
Forum, joins Seton Hall University Stillman School of Business and Valley
Forge National Bank ringing the closing bell of the New York Stock Exchange.
The visit marks the opening of the 'Trading Room,' a new trading facility at

market data. By simulating actual trading room activity, the 'Trading Room'
will be used to enhance the realism and practicality of courses in the
financial field.
