DN Journal Exclusive: Two of the best-known figures in the domain industry, both of whom already hold doctorate degrees, are heading back to college!  Dr. Chris Hartnett and 

Dr. Kevin Ham (both of whom were featured in DN Journal Cover Stories this year) have been accepted into Harvard's prestigious Advanced Management Program, the highest level executive program offered by the Harvard Business School. Dr. Hartnett and Dr. Ham will join 165 other executives from 45 countries around the world for the intensive two-month program that will have them sequestered in a classroom 14 hours a day, six days a week. Dr. Hartnett and Dr. Ham are close friends and Hartnett serves on the board of the company Dr. Ham founded, Reinvent Technology.

Dr. Hartnett told us he will be flying from his Heavenly Mountain, North Carolina home to Boston tomorrow to begin the program. "When we emerge at the end of October, hopefully with our fully accredited degrees from the Harvard Business School, we are hoping we will be better prepared to launch Reinvent's Global Initiative which has been in the works now for the last 6 months," Dr. Hartnett said. "We feel that pulling back the bow for these 60 days will allow our Reinvent arrows to fly high when released and will firmly hit the target upon our graduation, which is scheduled for October 24th with the closing ceremonies and graduation dinner to be held at the Four Seasons Hotel in Boston ."  

Hartnett added, "The only down side to this whole adventure that I can see is we both will be missing the New York T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Show for the first time and we will be having the “Best Day of Our Lives” in a classroom instead this time, so that should be quite the challenge. Don Ham will still be there at T.R.A.F.F.I.C. holding down the fort for

HitFarm. In the event we fail to reach the desired levels of “Best Day Bliss” we are sure to return to the following T.R.A.F.F.I.C. with some great stories and with a strong desire to have the best T.R.A.F.F.I.C. Show of our lives ever. Will miss you all and please give our very best to everyone!"

I have no doubt whatsoever that Chris and Kevin will be shining lights in the classroom at Harvard and will do our industry proud. Both men understand that learning is a never ending process and they have spent their lives seeking knowledge. It's kind of scary thinking they will come out of the Harvard program even better equipped than they already are - glad I don't have to compete with them! Can't wait to see the graduation photo - it will be a proud moment for them, their family and friends and the domain industry that they represent so well.
