Now here is a way to put your money where your mouth is

A new college set up in the Presidio in San Francisco is offering an MBA degree in Sustainable Business. Presidio World College. Not a bad way to learn how to make money out of your environmental values. Duke has a similar program.

Now you must remember that these "colleges" are not dis-interested in making a $$ themselves. In general I am quite skeptical of advanced degrees. I generally believe if you took the $30-$50K it would cost you for an MBA and spent it trying to start a company you would learn more than you can in a degree program. But some people need guidance and focus. These two programs surely would provide that. I wonder how many graduates there are every year in these kind of programs? I wonder what having 10X of these kind of people would do to our environment?
