Two of last year's No. 1 schools are repeat winners -- Purdue University in West Lafayette, Ind., in the Regional competition, and Switzerland's International Institute for Management Development, or IMD, in the International contest. And after a two-year hiatus, Dartmouth College in Hanover, N.H., placed first once again, this time in the National ranking. |
