<p>The Baker story is an interesting historical footnote (and I would agree that his legacy still bears an important mark on the current school – e.g. Baker Scholar) however, the school is known both formally and otherwise as Harvard Business School.</p>
<p>In fact, I can’t find a single other place on HBS’s own site where it is referred to as The Harvard Business School of Business Administration, George F. Baker Foundation. Take a look at HBS’s own historical page:</p>
<p>[HBS</a> History - Harvard Business School](<a href=“http://www.hbs.edu/about/history.html]HBS”>History - About - Harvard Business School)</p>
<p>There is absolutely no mention of the name “George F. Baker Foundation” – and the real litmus test is the HBS Diploma where the George F. Baker name is nowhere to be seen.</p>
<p>Finally, the difference between that and Chicago Booth is take a look at the current website, [The</a> University of Chicago Booth School of Business (formerly Chicago GSB) - Business School, Full-time, Part-time, Executive MBA Programs](<a href=“http://www.chicagogsb.edu/]The”>http://www.chicagogsb.edu/) future marketing materials, etc. where the Booth name is and will be front and center – anyone catch the full page ads taken out in major financial publications splashing the Booth name? – there is absolutely no avoiding it. Now compare that to HBS and the Baker name, you had to literally dig that footnote out of the archives – nowhere else is the Baker name prominent – and certainly doesn’t have equal billing to the Harvard name in any way, shape or form.</p>
