Nick Carraway goes for an MBA

Who is Nick Carraway?

Well, obviously, Nick's not my real name. For those of you who didn't read The Great Gatsby in school, Nick Carraway is the narrator. He has a small bungalow nextdoor to millionaire Jay Gatsby's mansion, and he serves as a sort of impartial observer to some of the events in the mysterious Gatsby's life. Nick's major observation throughout the book seems to be that the rich are selfishly careless and somewhat (self-)destructive.

I thought this might be an appropriate moniker for someone seeking an MBA, yet trying to observe and comment on the process at the same time. I hope I can provide some insight along the way, and let's hope the MBA isn't just another green light in the distance.
