Mais non, Mssr Dizzle. The "Robert Day School of Economics and Finance" of which you speak, was in fact established in 2007 as you stated. This school offers a Master's program in finance. Claremont divulges that the program is an addition rather than a change to the ESTABLISHED/EXISTING undergrad program which offers degrees (BA) in both economics and economic accounting. In conclusion, Claremont McKenna college is held in very high regard in USA academic circles. Can we not then say that Russ Skibsted does in fact have one of his degrees from a very prestigious institution ?
