I think that you can simulate perfectly.
You know, it's very difficult to take the academic setting and then immediately say,
"Okay I'm going to go into business and everything is going to be perfect."
According to this, we are a model we put together in business school.
It doesn't work like that.
There are many people who are attempting to make models and make it easier.
What I would say is to pay attention in class and then when you're going through the thick
of it and you realize, oh, you know I remember from so and so professor,
so and so's class, he told me this would happen.
And you know when you're down and when you feel down and out or when it feels dark
and you are alone, that there is someone else who's gone through it already
and then told the professor about it to teach it at a school.
So, you are not really alone.
This has happened before.
You just have to soldier on and continue
because I think perseverance is probably the best thing a student learns.
Okay, I have to take this test.
I gotta go to this next class.
I have to get this degree.
That's for the fortitude, the intestinal fortitude that is required in order
to achieve a degree in the first place, to me translates the best versus you know,
Economics 101 or something like that.
It's the total experience that I think preps a student for their business experience.
