-Professors Williams and Seaman have co-authored a study to be released early in the spring. According to Professor Seaman “The paper has determined the exact value of an MBA education with 90% certainty. The log-odds of success after graduation have been determined to be negative, disproving the null hypothesis.” What this means is anybody’s guess.
- The Graziadio School’s latest and greatest attempt at a new IT system, Tidalnet, experienced a system crash this morning. According to IT Professor Michael Williams, the crash began when a system off the coast of Japan became unstable. The disruption was first felt in the Tokyo metro area, but then spread across the Pacific Ocean before crashing the Malibu coast. Williams plans to hold a press conference to discuss whether to torpedo Tidalnet in favor of the mysteriously efficient Skynet. In addition, CardBoard 1.0, the successor to BlackBoard 7.2, is down indefinitely due to a problem in its support system after Tidalnet crashed the Malibu coast.
- Being a dry campus, Pepperdine has a reputation of being bereft of fun. Fly On The Wall feels this is unfair and decided to find out exactly what Pepperdine's business students do at night when they return home from the library. More than 250 students were interviewed, and multiple regressions were run, producing a model that explains the data quite well: Lite-Brite and glow-in-the-dark stickers scored big. Another popular one was throwing jacks. Remember Yahtzee? That was big before many of us were even born. Well, at Pepperdine, it's back with a vengeance. Strangely, ‘homework’ never came up as a response.
-GSBM has received a $5 million grant from Altria Group, Inc. The funds will go towards increasing the size of the student lounge and repairing the door to the library. In recognition of this generous donation the patio outside the cafeteria will be renamed “Marlboro Country”.
