Is it possible to link a title on a PowerPoint slide to other slides in the presentation? (Like how in Excel you can link to other cells so you don't have to keep filling in the same information)

For example, I have a title that has the format: date of meeting title of meeting. This is a weekly meeting so every week I have to manually change the date for 30+ slides. Any insights? Thank you!

Import an excel file with a cell containing the formula for today()...
Maybe tou would be able to refer on every slide to that same Excel cell... So you'd need to update the main source un excel only once

I keep hearing that Booth’s MBA program is rigorous (maybe the most rigorous out of M7). That said, how much more work are students expected to do compared to HBS, Wharton, Kellogg, etc.? I don’t know if this is an outdated opinion, considering a lot of MBAs are very demanding. Booth is personally my top choice for having a flexible curriculum & 2-3 days of classes. But I really want to know what to expect around the “rigorous” label. Does it mean I’ll be buried in coursework the other 2-3 days?
