Business schools are finding that statement to be truer than ever, as they compete to offer MBA programs to young professionals who have been immersed in technology — and the flexibility it can offer — their whole lives. Drake University, which has offered a hybrid classroom/online Master jumbo jenga of Business Administration program for the past three academic years, in @businessrecord | Twitter: businessrecord.com August launched a fully online version of its MBA program, along with a tournament fully online Master of Public Administration offering. Inspire • Teach • Act With that launch, it gained bragging rights as the first AACSB Inter- national-accredited business school in the state to offer a fully online MBA program. “We’re finding that our student body, the target audiences now are very technologically savvy,” said Daniel Connolly, dean of the College of Business at Drake University. “So what we’re trying to do is provide the right mix of options and delivery formats to appeal to their needs at any given point in time.” Drake is among a growing number of business schools worldwide that have implemented a fully online MBA. In a survey of 505 AACSB-accred- ited U.S. business schools, 197 indicated that they offered an online MBA. Among the 468 U.S. schools that offer master’s-level programs, those 197 schools that offer an online MBA represent 42 percent of all master’s level business programs.

Menlo that news route. I didn’t have the drive to tell the story, and I’m more of a detail person. So I kind of got my way into the producing side of it.

What did you do after school? I pondered what I was going to do. I am from Menlo, so I stayed around here. I started to get freelance jobs at Busby Productions and the com- pany that became Screenscape Studios. So I just started kind of like going around cold-calling, and, you know, interviewing and @businessrecord | Twitter: businessrecord.com found out there's a freelance world out there. So I started, like, just being a production assistant, REGISTER ONLINE and a crew member working on whatever, you know, schlepping stuff around building cables, you know, stuff, but you got to learn more about KOMENGREATERIOWA.ORG/DMRACE the industry and meet people. And then a guy named Art Bauer at American Media. I worked on industrial how-to videos. We did videos for Fortune 500 companies. So from there, I partnered with Terry Rich [as SATURDAY, OCTOBER 27, 2018 | Des Moines executive vice president of Rich Heritage Inc., a cable TV marketing and production firm]. And we did national cable television productions. So then I started working for Time Warner and TCI and those kinds of companies. So then we were traveling all over the U.S. meeting interesting people and going to all these locations. We’d go to Las Vegas and pull up satel- lite trucks and production trucks and we’d shoot for the whole weekend. We were going into mil- lions of homes live. It was amazing to think about what we were doing. It was marrying the direct response marketing with live production. And at one point we were promoting heavy- weight fights. [Evander] Holyfield, [Mike] Tyson. We’d go to Caesars Palace and be backstage and interview the refs and the managers. When the fight started, we’d be done because we were the barker channel, trying to get people to sign up for pay-per-view. So we would wrap up, see the fight and go to the HBO parties. It was mainly Terry and me, and we could keep expenses and ensure we were lean and mean and then go out and hire as needed. And we usually would go down to Florida for Walt Disney World, or Universal Studios, or we would go to LA and shoot different things. Warner Brothers, all the different stages. I was talking to [Des Moines developer] Bill Knapp one day and I was telling him I was at Caesars Palace when the Fan Man came in. He said, “So was I!” [She referred to the 1993 inci- dent in which a man paraglided into the side of Our Race is the ring at the Evander Holyfield-Riddick Bowe boxing match.] October 12, 2018 October

Right before the last caucuses I hired a location scout to do a 45-mile radius around Des Moines to find in- teresting barns. A lot of people come for the hogs or corn. Some people ask about the corn in January. [Note to our coastal friends: The corn is out of the fields in the winter.]

It sounds as though you get an unusual breadth of requests. Is that true? Yes. We have a movie going on right now in the Clear Lake and Ma- son City area. They are partnering with Sukup Manufacturing. They created a whole silo in the middle of an airplane hangar. The film is about being trapped in a silo. It’s going to be a feature film. They are getting ready for Sundance. I was just up there, and people were saying how beautiful Iowa is. It’s good to get people here, because once they are here they want to come back and they realize how clean and beauti- ful it is, and how helpful everybody is.

What do you see the most? We don’t get the studio films as much. We get the independent films, and Iowans making their own films. You get the Food Network or “House Hunters.” We had “Embeds,” a digital series about political reporters who were embedded in the presidential race. There was an old CNN report- er who had been here in 2008. He thought while he was here covering the race it would be great to do a show
