The Integrative Stream

For tomorrow we…study?

The first three posts on this blog hit my professional interests – the biomedical and software businesses. That’s not actually what this blog is going to focus on. That’s because tomorrow morning is the real day of my MBA at MIT’s Sloan School of Management. After several years in the private sector, I’m going back to school.

Actually, it’s not really the first day. Tomorrow is the start of “pre-term,” where a few [presumably] overworked teaching assistants attempt to refresh our collective memories with all the mathematics, economics and accounting we’ve managed to forget since our last entry into a classroom. Or, in the case of accounting, that we never really learned in the first place. Not strictly required, and hopefully relatively trivial. The official start of the school year is a week from Monday, with orientation. Actual MBA classes are two weeks out. Courses in the Biomedical Enterprise Program don’t start until next semester.
