So for those MBA accepted and those MBA hopefuls, looks like Wharton has a new dean coming in. See the Poets and Quant article linked below.

I wonder how this will affect the schools direction going forward and whether the class profile will shift. Let me know your thoughts.

WSJ Posted an article about Erika James, Goizueta's current dean moving to Wharton and Wharton's current dean moving to Marshall 
While it may seem like a demotion for Garrett to go from Wharton to Marshall, he is actually a former Marshall Faculty member but was leading Wharton's MBA program since 2014! That's a decent stretch of time! Meanwhile, Marshall has fired it's previous dean Jim Ellis (which sparked a number of concerns from donors and from students who wanted to keep him). Jim Ellis did a great job it seems with improving Marshall's perception and ranking, getting it into Top 20 US News last year. I guess we'll see how USC does this y ear..... Anyway, Marshall spent 7 months looking for a replacement, so Garrett seems to be coming back to save and help Marshall and fill a vacant spot.
Good luck to everyone!
abhimahna - any comments about Erika Jones' performance?
