Exit Strategy: Get Your MBA

October 14th, 2008

At our orientation this year I commented on how, in light of the current financial debacle, this year’s class was fortunate from a timing standpoint in that they were embarking on their MBA, MS in Tax and/or MS in Industrial Technology degrees (whether it was by intentional design or blind luck) now rather than later.

The Wall Street Journal just published the following article on this very topic.

Escape Route: Seeking Refuge in an MBA Program

Check it out. Your thoughts?

I am curious to learn more about the reasons some of you are here. Pray tell.

Prof. Carr Oct. 15, 2008 addendum: And here is a local SLO Tribune article that appeared in today’s paper, Ethics and Responsibility Are Hot Topics for Students at Poly’s Orflea College of Business, that relates to this post and also features several of your classmates. Good job Nic, Amy and David! And a good pic of the three of you as well.
