Ah, an MBA, the Dollar General of higher education. 

Trying to pretend like misogyny is a jock vs. nerd problem isn’t helpful. Misogyny (and racism and homophobia and...) run just as deep in most nerdy cultural enclaves as they do just about anywhere else. The lack of women on the m:tg pro scene isn't just because of this one creepy douchebag.

I wish they would add some regenerative practices. Farming Sim should be a teaching tool. Instead they want you to buy a giant tractor, till gigantic swaths of land, and spray the bejesus out of it. They need to be teaching intercropping, no-till, and other regenerative methods of farming :\
