Tuck Responds to HBS’ New 2 + 2 Program with 20 + 2
Initiative |

In a novel attempt to find people with even less
experience and fewer credentials, Harvard Business School recently
debuted their new 2 + 2 program in which students apply as college
juniors, then if admitted work for two years in an HBS sponsored job
before attending business school. Not to be outdone Tuck has responded
with the 20 + 2 program, besting the Cambridge colossus by a factor of
ten. Though details of the program are still emerging so far we know
that the general objective is identify future business leaders as
infants, based on their overall aptitude at crawling, cooing and
gurgling. |

Dean Danos spoke with the Profit via video
conference from his latest recruiting junket in the Seychelles and
shared with us the origins of the program. “We have been developing
this technology in our international laboratories over the past few
years. In fact we are close to being able to select the entire class
while still in the womb.” In a moment of candor Danos remarked, “We are
so far ahead on this one it’s not even funny. I’ve already dinged
Dennis Lasko’s yet to be conceived children.” |

As
a result of the program, ASW this year will have a significantly
different complexion with nap-time and an appearance by Sponge Bob
taking the place of beer-pong and the traditional Achtemeyer address.
Groups across the Tuck community are bracing for the impact of the
admitted Tuckie toddlers descending on campus. Byrne dining hall is
preparing for a run on ice cream and cookies, TuckStuff is increasing
its inventory of onesies, and Tuck Facilities is struggling with how to
childproof the over 5,000 power outlets on campus. |

In typical Tuck fashion the students have stepped
up to plate to help. John Hannon and Ben Renda have volunteered to lead
the “mommy track”, tentatively codenamed “Operation Cougar Hunt”, at the
Canoe Club while the youngsters attend sessions. |

Jason Cantrell will be leading formula chugging
races, scouting for talent for the 2029 Kniessel Cup team. Cantrell
said of the upcoming event “I’m not quite sure how chugging works with
the nipple on the bottle, but somehow Mulley manages to do it, so I
figure it won’t be a problem.” |
