Newswise — CHARLOTTESVILLE, Virginia — 6 February 2015 — The Washington Post with the University of Virginia Darden School of Business joint series “Case in Point” will continue in 2015.

Most “Case in Point” articles are based on Darden Business Publishing case studies. Darden’s publishing arm is the second largest case provider in the United States and third in the world.

“The ‘Case in Point’ Series is a valuable opportunity for educators to reach the broader business community,” says Darden’s Dean Bob Bruner, who authored the 100th article. “Business leaders must learn from the challenges of the past to build for the future.”
