Where does Georgia turn for most of its top executives? According to Standard & Poor's, that place is Georgia State University and the J. Mack Robinson College of Business.

In S&P's report listing of 1,600 top executives with Georgia companies, more executives with master's degrees or MBAs come from Georgia State than from any other institution in the nation. The leaders include:

Educational Institution	Atlanta S&P Executives with Advanced Degrees
Georgia State	66
Harvard	62
UGA	43
Emory	29
Virginia	21
Georgia Tech	19
Duke	17
North Carolina	13
Northwestern	13
Wharton	12
Stanford	10

Buck Associates, an Atlanta consulting firm, was the first to make schools aware of the list about five years ago, at which time Georgia State also ranked first but by a much narrower margin (59-58 over Harvard) than in the most recent report.
