Franklin School of Business is organizing a weekend series for business students to learn from academic and business experts. The series will be in the form of interviews with experts and will take place on the first Saturday and Sunday of the spring semester. On both days, five speakers will be interviewed, each of them will either be a faculty or an entrepreneur. In alignment with the school’s pedagogy, the majority of interviews on one of the days will not be from Finance. On the other day, at least four entrepreneurs will be interviewed. Neither day will have more than two interviews with experts from the same industry.
Four experts on each day have already been confirmed. The following schedule shows the experts’ details – profession, area of expertise, and industry.
Saturday
O’Reilly: Faculty, Finance, Fashion
Hoffman: Entrepreneur, Marketing, E-commerce
Epstein: Entrepreneur, Marketing, E-commerce
Jenson: Entrepreneur, Finance, Retail
Sunday
Martinez: Entrepreneur, Finance, Retail
Kahl: Entrepreneur, Finance, Retail
Wahba: Faculty, Strategy, Education
Emanuel: Faculty, Operations, Manufacturing
Select an expert who could be the fifth expert on either day. Then select an expert who could be the fifth expert on neither day. Make only two selections, one in each column.

Experts' Global Explanation:
Since only two entrepreneurs are scheduled for Sunday, it is not possible to satisfy the condition of having at least four entrepreneurs on a Sunday. Thus, Saturday must have four entrepreneurs in the panel, and Sunday should have the majority of the experts who are not from Finance.
Additionally, since there cannot be more than two interviews with experts from the same industry, it follows that the selected expert for Saturday must not be from the E-Commerce industry, and the selected expert for Sunday must not be from the Retail Industry.
Thus, the experts who satisfy the given conditions for each day will have the following details:
Saturday: (Entrepreneur, ________, NOT E-Commerce)
Sunday: ( ________, NOT Finance, NOT Retail)
Hence, for “Either Day” column, “Mulick: Entrepreneur, HR, Automobiles”, and for “Neither Day” column, “Crowe: Faculty, Finance, Sports” is the correct combination of the answer choices.
