[quote=Anonymous]We toured Babson. Very entrepreneurship focused. The guide said even the non-business courses were taught through a business lens, like what kind of business would you create to meet an environmental science need.

The campus is nice and it is very green and wooded, not a lot of open grass space compared to trees. They have a very cool innovation lab where you can make prototypes of almost anything.

I liked lots of things about it as far as curriculum and focus. But at the end of the day I agreed with my son’s assessment: it felt like, “Hi! I’m Babson. Money.” It felt a little devoid of values beyond making money and like it could be very lacrosse bro-ish.

We didn’t feel the same way about Bentley or even Bryant. I work in business and I would rank how much I liked them as Bentley, Babson, then Bryant. My son would rank them Bentley, Bryant, then Babson.

My other concern was it really didn’t offer any majors outside Business so you’d need to be very certain you only wanted to study business. At least at Bentley and Bryant it is clearly a business school at heart but also offered other humanities majors to partner with that.[/quote]
