How does Babson rank? </BLOCKQUOTE>

I live 5 minutes from Babson. It has a surprisingly nice campus. I'm not really sure how it ranks compared to other business schools, but it's hardcore. There are hardly any non-business courses and those that are non-business usually quite poor. TBH, if you want to get into a good business school for graduate school, you should get a liberal arts education. The best ranking business grad schools value a well-rounded individual with a liberal-arts background more than a strictly hardcore business person.

Also, liberal arts gives you a fallback in case you decide business isn't right for you and teaches writing fundementals and other stuff required for any field.

I want Scott's opinion on Manny Ramirez. Rubbish layabout or talisman?

retired_adge1475

He's lazy and a crybaby. I don't feel he has any loyalty to the club or to the city. Manny wants what's best for Manny and wouldn't hesitate to move to a different club if they could pay him a lot. With that out of the way, I think he is a terrific, albeit, lazy player. He has a good arm, plays left field very well, is faster than he may seem, and always seems to come up clutch. Last year was disappointing and I don't see the point paying him so much when he performs as well as someone who makes 1/5 of what he makes.

He's really funny though and has total spaz moments when you're like, "Why the hell did he do THAT?" I also get the sense that he's quite dumb.

Actually I've been considering seeking further music education in California. Someone attempt to advise me on a university that's good for music.

I don't know music programs at all, but I imagine you couldn't go wrong with Berkeley or UCLA. I do recall that Dave Brubeck went to the University of the Pacific.
