"At Drexel University, belief in the value of experiential learning is so strong that starting this fall it comprises 70 percent of the MBA program, up from 50 percent previously. Students are required to participate in the hands-on activities; it is not optional."... "'Experience is embedded in the culture at Drexel,' said George Tsetsekos, dean of Drexel's LeBow College of Business. 'Just to have sterile discussions in the classroom is not enough.'"
