Facebook profile has been eradicated. Updates about my life and endless conjecture will now be found here; smaller stuff will be on Twitter. I hadn’t clicked on the RSS link in a while, but for some reason it doesn’t work in Chrome (ironic) and does work in Firefox. So if you do subscribe, use Firefox, [...]
The first round of the Medtronic Case Competition is over. That’s good news for me as the work load lightens a bit, but also good news for three groups of interdisciplinary students and Medtronic. I sat in on the majority of the presentations and have to say that the quality of students across the gamut [...]
It is ridiculoid busy right now. I’m not sure what happened, but the firs two months of this semester have had as many, if not more, papers than the previous three semesters combined! It’s a lot to handle, and finding time to get them done has truly been difficult. It’s mostly based on the fact [...]
The last few weeks I’ve spent a lot of time over the last few weeks learning about Wall Street and Investment Banking. I’m in the midst of an ethnography book on Wall Street (which I’ll review whenever I finish) and have an ethics class that has had a few discussions turned to capital investment. What’s [...]
In many ways, it seems as if school is already over. Classmates are scattered about in their own directions, focused on acquiring a job or pet projects, deep down their paths. The school is now belonging to the first year MBA class, who take the reins on many organizations, projects and the overall school. They [...]
I’ve been very busy with school as the semester starts. I have three night classes (that’s a lot) and they are all centered on the medical industry, which has been interesting as of yet, but will assuredly be a lot of work. My day classes are ethics and anthropology; the latter is already proving a [...]
I have a few days before school starts and am relaxing. Jet lag is at a low and most everything has already been taken care of. Going to the supermarket and buying normal food for actual meals has been enjoyable and so is seeing friends again. The best part has to be sleeping in my [...]
Oh yes. Rejoice in the yet untold glory that is a full month off from both school and work. Oh yes.
For what it’s worth, I am always trying to encapsulate the difficulty and meaning of business school when a major piece wraps up. It has been impeccable in terms of learning. It has already been [...]
Maybe you’ve heard the joke about two people in the woods. They are walking along, and all of a sudden they hear something behind them. They turn to see a vicious bear running toward them in the distance. One of them immediately bends down to tie his shoes.
The second of the two yells at him, [...]
Something that everyone should do is continue to learn. Regardless of what you do or what you want to do, if you consistently add knowledge to your current understanding, good things will happen. That’s the reason I’m in school and the reason to seek out new books, blogs and ideas. Staying hungry for knowledge will [...]
