Slate/Newsweek: Life Is Still Good for Wisconsin Business Students
Daniel Gross is the Moneybox columnist for Slate and the business columnist for Newsweek. In April he spent a week as UW-Madison’s Business Writer in Residence, speaking to students at the Wisconsin School of Business and to journalism students.
A column about Gross’ impressions of his visit to Madison appeared on both Slate and Newsweek’s websites. In the column, Gross favorably compared the city and the business school to their East Coast counterparts.

More significantly, the business school isn’t having a dark night of the soul, as so many of its Eastern counterparts are.”
