Im pretty pumped as I just got accepted to the Clarkson University Graduate School of Business to get my MBA in supply chain management. Just got the big envelope in the mail today, quite a nice coming home present from Jackson Hole if I do say so myself.

Best part is, they are already cool with me taking a year off prior to ski bum out west. Money!

Congrats! SCM is a pretty exciting area of business, despite what most people might think. Be sure to get a good grounding in finance, too- Financial Supply Chain MAnagement is an underserved, but increasingly important, aspect.

Other really cool thing is you'll still qualify for "college student pass rates"!

My 4 years of dental school kept me on those rates for 8 years! :cool: :daffy:

drjeff is right...nothing like using a grad school id to get at two for one discount at belleayre.
This might be the only redeeming thing about law school.

Im a senior at SLU, Clarkson is our hated rival, thats where the cluck farkson comment comes from. Ill admit, Im a bit of a traitor, but Clarkson is one of the ten best programs in the country for supply chain, and its a 1 year program, so its a perfect fit for me.

Thanks for all the kind words guys, and dont worry, I plan on taking advantage of that college season pass at Whiteface for one more season. By then the tree island pod should be running!

AR : I too have one of my degrees from SLU and have had several extended family members attend Clarkson so am more than familiar with the rivalry :>)


For years i was a professional colleague at one of the area's SUNY schools and worked with several faculty and admin from BOTH schools on many joint initiatives .

You chose well
