Trialing a Wiki for BPP
At present, this wiki is also being used to trial a wiki for the Business and Public Policy (Strategy and Business Economics) group at the Haas School of Business, which in turn will be used to trial a wiki for the Business PhD program at Haas. The deployment of a server to host the BPP (and PhD) wiki is currently taking place, and relevant content from this wiki will be redeployed to the new environment. If you are a BPP PhD student or faculty member, please participate!
