He should have donated 30% to MIT and 70% to a good marketing school.

(Also, it's pretty ironic that I know that MIT is a good tech school but have no idea what a good marketing school is.)

Sounds like marketing schools are not doing a good job of marketing themselves.

Maybe this implies that MIT is a good marketing school.

Kellogg (Northwestern) and Ross (Michigan) are pretty widely acknowledged as the best traditional marketing schools. General list: http://www.businessweek.com/bschools/mbapremium/oct2006/bs20...

Seems like Bose did just fine in marketing without that additional "schooling".

I'd bet that a brilliant marketer with additional schooling was behind that.
