<p>JHS,
Actually, NU is not really as far “ahead” as you may think. After all, the administration refused to offer undergrad biz degree, citing the importance of liberal arts education. Kellogg certificate was a compromise they came up with. That’s why I suspect Chicago found that model attractive - something it could imitate without violating its core mission (though some Chicago purists may think otherwise). NU is no Cornell/Penn.</p>
