Historically Black College MBA Programs: Prestige, Rankings, and the Meaning of Success - 4 0 16; Curtin, Meredith A; Gasman, Marybeth; 5 Journal of Education for Business. 79 (2) : November - December 2003. pp. 79-84.
ABSTRACT : Given that Black colleges do not fare as well in the rankings as predominantly White ones, the authors of this article sought to learn more about the MBA (master's of business administration) and post-MBA experiences of graduates of Black college MBA programs. The authors examined the factors defining success as perceived by MBA program administrators at predominantly White and traditional Black institutions. Their examination shows students, alumni, and employers the alternative perceptions of success at both types of schools.
