Came upon this in a listserv I'm in:

https://www.squidoo.com/Alternative-MBA

I myself am DQ'd due to time/location constraints but it definitely piqued my curiousity. Seth Godin isn't just some quack, has a stanford MBA himself and has wrote a bunch of interesting books. Worth a look.

If you are already competitive for b-school (which I assume we all are), then you have most of the skills that this guy plans to impart to you. Work for free? Move to upstate NY and take out of my savings to pay for rent/food/expenses? No thank you, not in this economy.
