"I have spent 12 of my 28 years in higher education working in top business schools-three in graduate admissions and nine as a tenured professor. I especially love teaching and mentoring MBA students, in part because I know that most of them are going to ascend to leadership in corporations, government agencies and other organizations in the future. I want them to leave my classrooms with the practical skills required to solve complex contemporary business problems."
"Students in K-12 schools and on college campuses are receiving a different lesson right now from our federal government. Specifically, it is an instructive lesson on imperialism-the act of a powerful nation exerting control over less powerful countries, often leading to the violent seizure of land and other valuable material resources. After capturing and arresting Venezuela president Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores, U.S. president Donald Trump declared that the U.S. would be "running" the country."
A professor with extensive experience in top business schools focuses on teaching and mentoring MBA students to develop practical skills and ethical values. The professor rejects prioritizing profit above all else and rejects teaching misuse of power or encouraging hatred of America. The professor also rejects the idea that American exceptionalism justifies seizing other countries' land and resources. The piece characterizes recent federal actions as teaching imperialism to students by example, citing the reported capture of Venezuela's president and subsequent U.S. declarations of control as illustrative of that behavior.
