MBA picnic

Saturday night...almost at the end of this week. I think it was tough for all of us, right? Two midterm exams, on Applied Microeconomic Theory and Managerial Accounting, without mentioning the other homework. But, finally we had the picnic at  "Chaney's Dairy Barn" today and everybody had fun!

I really needed to go out for a while and meet my colleagues outside the classroom! I enjoyed the ice cream and the people there. I had spent very little time with my family this week and our "batteries" were low. So, what a great chance to charge them while being with friends, eating ice cream and having fun outdoors. The weather was great by the way and the 1000 lb pumpkin was impressive (so was the 200 lb watermelon).


Have a great Sunday and...see you in class "mates" !!!

MBA students are really “motivated”

Fall break is almost over, it’s Sunday and I’m back after some time. I don’t know if I can really call it a “break”, since homework (assignments, cases, etc.) was almost doubled! That’s life, right? Business is a competitive environment and MBA students need to be prepared for difficulties!

I was reading the other day about Clyde Wagnon. Anybody heard of him? The tabloids were saying: “90-year-old Idaho man seeks MBA degree”, isn’t it amazing? He was working as a real estate agent and a mobile home salesman, but now he is interesting in finding a new career after graduating. He retired 25 years ago and has just decided that he doesn’t like it any more. He is something else!!!

If I ever live to be 90 I wish I’ll have his energy and passion for life!!!
