They are one off websites. Get some big study. I'll give you Bloomberg, but that's Full-Time for an MBA ranked #27. Not a Bachelors, nor Phd.

MBA = the practical business degree.

And what are your thoughts on:Animation Career Review lists BYU's animation degree program is #7 compared to all animation schools in the Western US, beating even schools in California. In contrast ,Learn.org ranks it as #3 nationally. Game Designing.org puts it at #9, and Independent Magazine puts it in their top 10 most innovative schools. (And yes, these are websites, we are on the internet after all).

I think most people get a Bachelor's. I think that there are fewer Master level business programs, so I can see it being under a Master's Degree listing.

The one annimation rated them by how many acadamy awards their movies won. Now that sounds very odd. That is not about a degree, but popularity of movies.

An MBA is expected for most business jobs.

It makes perfect sense to judge animation quality by the movie's success/popularity.

1. You claimed that all of the church leadership went to BYU and that they received indoctrination accordingly. You yourself have now shown that your statement is false. Can we expect a retraction now?

2. Of those who went to BYU, only one person on your list majored in anything having to do with religion. Instead, the rest majored in such fields as law, business, and medicine. Does this sound like indoctrination to you?

3. Given the variety of experiences, education, and background of these individuals, do you feel them appropriate to lead a church or not appropriate?

They're no less educated than most of our pastors. Mormons seem to brag that their leaders didn't go to Bible school or seminary. Only a few of ours have doctorates.

As someone who has an MBA, I can tell you that:

1. Bachelors' degrees in business are pretty well interchangeable between schools; what matters is what you get once you're in b-school itself.

2. A person who wants an MBA isn't going to care about the bachelor's aspect as long as the school is accredited and doesn't have a bad reputation.

3. There is no doctoral degree in business administration itself, at least not one that's widely recognized; those people who have doctorates in business-related fields almost always have them in such areas as finance and economics, not business itself.

Hence Bloomberg not stopping to consider bachelor's or doctorate degrees.

As a movie reviewer?

Academy Awards are still coveted quite greatly in the entertainment industry, so for an animation program to get one - not a full-fledged studio with trained, experienced professionals, but college kids - to get one is, indeed, a pretty big deal.

I'm pretty sure it's by graduates.

No, seriously: if you want to get your foot in the door at some of the better companies in the US, you need an MBA, a minimum time in military service (with a spotless record), or something else of the sort that can attest to you knowing how to work within - and even lead - an organization. Even then, the MBA is still mandatory if you want to go beyond the cubicle.

Odd thing to brag about, because none of their people know the Bible, so it makes sense to me. It just shows they don't want to know about Jesus at all.

So you have an MBA I take it?
