Future of B-Schools Part 2: Wharton fails to make it to innovators list!

And then you wonder why B-Schools are failing. Many financial institutions and schools that take the pride (what is that in todays global economy anyways) in teaching the fresh grads to go after the global economy where they have to chase a new and wild breed of money lenders. You have the Egotistic Sheikhs, the Opulent Indians, the Angry Africans, the distrustful Chinese and the disgruntled Venezuelans, and they don't care about your background.

Anyways we are still on track and intend to drill all business schools one by one and ask them this simple question: "Why on earth should I spend my time and my parents hard-earned money into your institution?"

I have been talking to many young fresh and experienced graduates (with work experience, that is) and they all are weighing their odds and even wondering why on earth they should spend loads of cash when the "personal ROI" is still achievable with a manageable investment that does not involve any huge investment in failing and dilapidated institutions in the west.
