Abstract

The significance of James A. Graaskamp for the academic real estate profession is anopen question: divergent views on his accomplishments need to be reconciled. On the surface,there is a sharply divided perception between his admirers and his critics. Charismatic leaders(many of his admirers viewed him as such) often stimulate such sharp differences betweendevotees and non-believers.
