Yes...there is a GSB!
Ok...so the number of comments over the holidays about the blog being inappropriately named ("What is the GSB?" "Why even include the GSB if you don't comment on it?" "Does Owen ever go to the GSB?") have convinced me to include a weekly update of what is going on at the GSB. Considering there are only two more academic quarters, it is probably a good idea to capture and share some of the events and activities of my MBA experience.
The Winter Quarter began this past week. For second year students with job offers already secured, this is when the mind seems to make a real transition. Mental cruise control is fully engaged. It is also a point at which people, including myself, realize that group projects are no longer that much fun. I won't miss homework and projects, but six months from now, I know that I will miss the flexible daily schedule.
My curriculum this quarter includes 4 courses, (i) Taxes & Business Strategy, (ii) Economics and Policy in the Telecom, Media, and Technology Industries, (iii) Cases in Financial Management, and (iv) New Venture Strategy. Should be a fun quarter with very strong professors.
On Friday, Owen made his first visit of the quarter to the GSB. Every Friday evening at the GSB is highlighted by a corporate or student sponsored social event with free food and drinks for students and their families. Owen enjoyed checking out the new sign out front of the building...
...and walking around inside. Here he is leaving finger prints all over the glass railing between the main floor and the lower floor.
Yes, it is a little creepy, but he didn't hesitate to stand as close as possible so that he could see people down below. More updates to follow in the coming weeks.
