As news spread about Olin’s #4 ranking in the new Bloomberg Businessweek survey released March 20, Twitter and Facebook were buzzing with congratulations and expressions of pride in our undergrad program.

Dean Gupta marked the jump in the rankings by ordering giant cakes and some savory snacks for undergrads in Simon Hall on Thursday afternoon.

Chancellor Wrighton talks to Olin undergrads about their program’s #4 ranking in the latest Bloomberg Businessweek survey.

Chancellor Mark Wrighton stopped by and told students, faculty and staff gathered in the undergrad lounge that,  “it’s always nice when a third party recognizes something we’ve known all along…you’re the best!”

The Chancellor said he also expects Olin’s undergrads – who can boast the highest SAT scores of all the business school students in the nation – to continue to succeed and exceed expectations in their college and post-graduation careers.

Pressue is on…swallow that cake and get back to the library!
