Abstract

In Chapter 14, significant similarities between the two periods of curriculum review (i.e., late 1950s and early 1990s) at Columbia Business School were demonstrated at a global level. First, each curriculum review was preceded by a long period of convergence—roughly 40 and 30 years, respectively, times of equilibrium during which the institution grew in fairly consistent fashions. Second, the time spans during which the major curriculum reviews occurred were characterized as periods of reorientation in which the patterns of consistency developed during convergence were reordered, and significant changes were made in the School’s strategy, power structure and controls. In this chapter, a more detailed comparison is made of the two major curriculum reviews at Columbia Business School—in the late 1950s and early 1990s.
