School Wants PowerPoint Presentations with Admission Forms

powerpoint student admissionThe Graduate School of Business at University of Chicago are trying a new experiment - they are asking MBA aspirants to include a PowerPoint presentation in their applications.

Students will have to limit their presentations to text, images and clipart but no hyperlinks or audio-video embeds.

If applicants do not have access to PowerPoint or a similar presentation software, they can email the admissions office for alternative methods.

One reason for such a requirement is that students will anyway have to master PowerPoint in their future jobs. Hmm..

The original creators of PowerPoint were against the idea of kids using this software since �children need to think and write in complete paragraphs."
