MBA Ranchers

I was looking through stories and found this quaint and interesting story of the "old" west!

Once upon a time, in the Wild West, all it took to raise cattle was land, grass and cowboys who knew how to rope the critters. Now, it may take an MBA. Texas A&M-Kingsville's Institute for Ranch Management is offering what university officials call the first ever masters degree program for ranchers, sort of a Harvard Business School for cowboys. In addition to graduate-level business courses, students are schooled in rangeland specialties, including animal nutrition and wildlife management.

Best of luck to the "cowboys" headed for their MBA's instead of "range wars" of old!!!

FASCINATING STORY!! YIPPEE KIY YEAH!!
