Парень который выгуливал собачку Джорджа Буша поступил в Гарвард на МБА даже не имея диплома бакалавра.
DESPITE his low approval rating, George Bush’s recommendation still goes a long way. Just ask Blake Gottesman. Mr Gottesman is the president’s 26-year-old personal aide, responsible for carrying his breath mints, logging his telephone calls and dog-sitting his Scottish terrier. In June the self-described “luckiest college dropout” in America, will leave the White House to enrol at the Harvard Business School (HBS), where the president himself studied.
Mr Gottesman completed only one year of undergraduate study. Yet the possession of an undergraduate degree tops the list of admission requirements on HBS’s website. But Jim Aisner, a spokesman for the school, says extraordinary circumstances will sometimes compel it to drop the rule. He will not comment on the case of Mr Gottesman, but he does note that the lack of a degree would hardly keep the likes of Bill Gates or Michael Dell, both college dropouts, from being admitted. Needless to say, holding the president’s hand-sanitiser is a far cry from heading a Fortune 500 company.
