Top 5 reasons why MBA students are dorks


5. We use words and phrases like "diversify," "joint probability," and "decision trees" in everyday conversation.

4. We refuse to be seen in public without our laptops, cell phones and business cards.

3. We want to know why the school building is closed on Sundays, preventing us from working there on the Sabbath.

2. We call our Thursday night happy hours "IPOs" -- short for "informal public outings."

1. We listen to rap songs about the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in our accounting class.

Dammit, I am a freakin' MBA student. If you have other reasons to add, please feel free ... lay it on thick. We deserve it.

Oct. 27 -- I'm in Chicago for an MBA conference, staying with a friend at GSB. She was just looking at some of the goodies that we brought back from the Career Fair and jumped at the pen with the built-in post-in note flags. And she says "oh i love these pens!" That's Reason 6 why MBA students are dorks.
