Wow, time has been flying bye! I’m almost finished with my fourth Quarter @ Kellogg. I haven’t written about the experience nearly as much as I should have. I could pin this on a multitude of reasons, but it comes down to the fact that I am a fairly inconsistent blogger
I’m going to try and catch things up quickly, very quickly.
First off, Kellogg is awesome. The students are great, the workload is manageable and the education is first rate. This quarter, I’m taking the second of two core statistics courses and microeconomics. Both of these courses leverage students abilities to work together as the majority of the course work has been team based. These aren’t exactly what you’d typically consider a shoe-in for team work, but it has actually worked out pretty well.
I’ve found that my classmates are all top notch and that we all work together really well. In the part-time program, we are all swamped with school, work and some semblance of a life outside of that so we are all in the same boat. This provides an interesting dynamic as schedules and workloads adjust in each of the different parts of our lives; somehow, we all seem to make it work every time.
For the upcoming quarter, I’m jumping head first into two of my focus areas. I’ll be taking a course known by the students simply as turbo. It is a two for one finance course that knocks out two quarters of work in a single quarter. This of course means lots of work, reading, projects and the like. I’ll be complimenting the craziness of turbo with a very interesting course on Leading the Strategic Change Process. This should be a really fun course, and something that is very interesting to me. I’m looking forward to both of these!
Okay… that is my quick update for now.
