Memphis is getting outranked by UNT...

You're being out ranked by a school named after a cheap whine. "Thunderbird".

You just can't make this stuff up.

You'd be better served flushing your money down the toilet than doing an online MBA.

Dude are you kidding me? You haven't heard of Thunderbird? It's one of the top management schools in the world.

You obviously fail to see the humor in having your school named after a cheap whine. Have you ever seen or heard of anyone wearing Thunderbird University apparel? Think about it. It will sink in eventually.

+1 Though it may help get a small raise and a little boost on your next job, it flies in the face of what the MBA experience is supposed to be. It's a money making scheme for schools.

There's a difference in online schools and an online program from a reputable brick and mortar school.

I'm pretty sure your degree doesn't have "online" stamped on it.

I personally despised the one online class I took for mine though. Not my thing.

I tend to agree. While the flexibility of online programs may be necessary for some, anyone who has the ability to participate in an on-campus MBA program should do so rather than partake in the online option.

90% of what you learn in an MBA program is learned through classroom discussion and group work. That part is missed by online programs.

Most can't take the time off and are unwilling/can't to give up their weekend. This is another way of watering down education for the sake of profits/budgets.

The same can be said about a lot of MA's and MS's. Really the only ones that aren't affected in large part by classroom discourse are the heavily technological or scientific programs.

IDK, the modern MBA program is built on collaboration. There is a reason why the average student has been out of school for 4-6 years.

Dude, you really have no clue what you are talking about.

You obviously have no sense of humor or have never been young. Either of them could be why you lack the capacity to understand or derive the impressions of several drunken men standing around a burning trash can, drinking a sickly sweet smelling cocktail, while telling stories of days past. Perhaps you just lack the quality education one can obtain while on the streets.

I grew up in the inner city and have such memories. Those where the days.

I know the price is 50 twice

Someone actually takes the time to rank online degrees? Do you have to draw the turtle or the parrot to get in or will the tuition check clearing suffice?
