<p>I will add to the heated debate. I have chosen to attend Penn State University Park’s Smeal School of Business. Why? because it has a fantastic business program and social life. Pretty soon Babson will not be the top ranked small private business school because Bentley will surpass it. Even if it is the top ranked small business school that is not something to brag about because there are 28 other schools and most of them are very large that are better then Babson for the only thing that Babson does - business.</p>
<p>Pretty soon Wharton will hunt down the hunted ( in this case Babson for entrepreneurship). Think of Wharton as being the King of the Sea and it controls every aspect of it. Then think of Babson as being this little chump controlling this one area (we’ll call it entrepreneurship) and it’s been doing this for years on end. Wharton will hunt down Babson at the top.</p>
<p>Bentley’s academic programs are far more technological advanced then Babson’s. It is a no brainer why Bentley was named one of the 12 hot schools for 2004 and Babson is still unheard of besides entrepreneurship. Why did Bentkey beat Babson in the Most Connected Survey’s List? Well maybe because Bentley is superior technologically</p>
<p>For the one who said that Bentley has a highway running through it, bigger class sizes and a less intelligent/international student body rethink to yourself for a second gee isn’t their a similarity between those characteristics that supposedly make Bentley bad and the schools that are ranked very high for business (much better then Babson). Oh yeah I forgot they are mostly all state schools…right so bigger classes are definetely bad and a less international and intelligent student body will make it worst? Of course…</p>
<p>Well I can say that Babson is a small, spirit lacking complex of buildings where students do non-stop workand as a result you’ll have no social life. Give it some time Romo and I’m sure that hard work will be even funner when you get to college because of course you’ll be so much more prepared then anyone else right… This hardwork is so similar to the type of work you’ll be doing in the realworld so why not get some practice at it when your young right. Last time I checked wasn’t college supposed to be challenging AND FUN (the latter will be something you won’t experience very often and the reminders will become more annoying)??</p>
<p>I’m sorry but Babson lacks the characteristics to push itself to the top.</p>
