An Entrepreneur Sees Profits in the Future of His "Power Campus."
Blumenstyk, Goldie
Chronicle of Higher Education, v45 n6 pA41-A43 Oct 2 1998

The growth strategy is built on the concept of "power campuses": new branches specializing in business degrees and an intensive, technology-oriented curriculum taught in corporate- like settings.
