If Mitt Romney were to win the upcoming presidential election, Columbia Business School (CBS) students would likely lose their Dean, Glen Hubbard. Why? Hubbard is a top economic advisor for the Romney campaign and there are whispers that a President Romney just might make Hubbard his Secretary of the Treasury. In an article published in yesterday?s New York Times, David Segal reveals Hubbard to be the man behind the Bush era tax cuts and Romney?s economic plan, while also delving into Hubbard as an academic who has blurred lines between business and research. Segal paints a portrait of Hubbard as a polarizing individual, who is unpopular with some professors and almost did not win a second term as Dean, but ultimately relied on his corporate connections to save his own job by gaining a $100 million donation from Henry Kravis of KKR. Who knows where the truth lies, but for a rare glimpse into the life of a high-profile business school dean, the article is an interesting, if not slightly salacious, read.
