Last year, The Oppy reached out to other business school newspapers around the country to get a sense of how they’re running their papers. After meeting with several editors-in-chief from MBA programs, we decided to form a coalition with a small but growing group of top graduate business schools. We are going to share some of their best articles from their monthly issues.
For April, we have ChiBus, the newspaper from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.
Some of the interesting reads from their last issue are:
