The MFA is the new MBA (tougher, too!)
From Dan Pink's commencement address at the Ringling School of Art and Design in Sarasota, Florida earlier this year:
"Last year, Harvard Business School – the premier MBA program in the world, the place where even the President of the United States earned his degree—admitted only about10 percent of its applicants. That's pretty tough. But there are several places where the admissions standards are even tougher. For instance, the graduate program of the UCLA Department of Art admitted only three percent of its applicants. In other words, it's easier – much easier – to get into Harvard Business School than UCLA Art School."
