I've had such a crazy week I never heard or read about this! I'm almost confused as to why no one at work has ever mentioned this either. Anyway, what do you think are the implications of this merger for us Chicago folks? I'm thinking major restructuring and potential job changes or losses due to redundancies especially if you work for DDB, BBDO, or FCB. Sharing the article in the comments!

I have been looking at the curriculums for Harvard Business School's Master of Business Administration and Harvard Extension School's ALM in Management. They both have the same requirements (generally speaking) including a capstone course that serves as a field immersion course with the Master's in Management, which is fairly new. If I am not able to gain admission to Harvard Business School, but wanted a similar educational experience to become a consultant, should I attend Harvard Extension?
