Columbia Dean Gives Advice for Choosing a Business School
An article written by Glenn Hubbard, dean of the Columbia Business School was featured on the Fortune Magazine website. The article discusses whether or not business school rankings really matter.

Dean Hubbard begins by discussing how prospective students can measure the quality of a business school.
