Always nice to hear from the Dean...

Baylor posted some pics from their recent competition. They get pretty good in the 50s and 80s if you ask me...

Subject: Congratulations!

I got an email from the Dean of the business school at Baylor University (I was at Baylor before coming to Pepperdine, and know the dean there very well). He was emailing to congratulate our team on winning their ethical leadership case competition. I can't tell you how proud I was to learn that you won the competition. I know you worked very hard in preparation and it is good to see that pay off. It is also great given our significant emphasis on ethical leadership - and a side benefit is seeing us win against my former school and some other very good MBA programs!

Thanks for representing the school so well! I am very proud of each one of you.
