hey clementine,
thanks for your insight! i got the same feeling from talking to Wagner and Baruch alums/current students. Baruch feels more like a place to get a degree because that's just the next step and Wagner has more students who envsion larger leadership roles for themselves. not that those students don't exist in Baruch but NYU administration seems better prepared to create curriculum and a community for those goals.
i think i've deicded on NYU (hopefully my bank account will forgive me).
thanks again,
s
