it does not get him into yale law school. he approaches yale law school and the school assesses him. they said he would be a fine student, but not if he has a job. you can't go to yale law, take on the load of study that is demanded by them, and hold a job. so the reasoning goes. ford also talks with his coaches about that, who tell him, well, you can't really go to law school and fulfill your coaching responsibilities. he has these dynamics working against his ambition to become a lawyer. he takes some provisional classes elsewhere to demonstrate he can do the work. using that, he gets himself admitted into yale law school. he does not tell them he has this other job. he does not tell his other coaches he is going to go to law school. by this means, he is able to do both. he ends up graduating in the top 25% of his law school while fulfilling his coaching responsibilities. yale law school represents more than just him attaining the means to fill a profession. it means him opening up. he spent six years at yale. during that t

the point was that yale men were fighting men, and they were poised to reproduce. [laughter] dr. brown: only the dead are listed, but they are proxies for all who served. not coincidentally, the president of yale was the leader of the college presidents for training. college presidents were important to this initiative because yale did not advocate strenuous military training in response to army manpower needs, but as a form of discipline, a form of education. this is very different from the kind of cincinnatus consideration that we saw in daniel chester french's minutemen statue where the heroic knowing tear carried his virtue with them the farm. wood's argument and the argument of the yale memorial is military service was a source of virtue, not unlike collegiate athletics which had recently became so will which had recently became so popular. we might make a similar point about a soldier monument that caused a good deal of controversy, the so-called silent sam monument at the university of north carolina. the plan was to have this ready for the 1911 commencement which would co

( laughing ) >> hinojosa: and so you were like, the hit! "let's go to ming; he's going to eat!" >> yeah, "let's go to ming's and eat some cake." and then at age ten-- and this is what really... i remember this story to death-- a couple showed up at our door. this was back in dayton, ohio, where the doors are unlocked, right? it was very safe for everyone in the world. and this

david: how did you pick yale?ra: there was an article in "time magazine" or something like that which sort of talked about the yale school of management, public and private management, and how they bring together the different sectors. it was a beautiful article. i read about it at the library at the consulate office in madras where i was growing up. i was so intrigued by the approach to education from yale that i decided to apply. david: when you graduated, you then began to go into various strategy kinds of positions. where were you initially? indra: i went to the boston consulting group in chicago and spent 6.5 years there, and perhaps one of my most formative experiences, because being in strategy consulting at that time allowed me to see problems of companies in a holistic way. it was not just marketing or operations or supply chain. i saw every aspect of the company, and it's sort of gave me 10 years of experience in six years, and i became a better person because of that. david: how did pepsico hear of you?
