Harvard Business School's India-born dean Nitin Nohria has publicly apologised for the school's treatment of women students and professors, and vowed to make changes at the premier institution to deal with gender bias.
Nohria acknowledged that Harvard Business School had sometimes treated its female students and professors offensively.
Nohria conceded there were times when women at Harvard felt "disrespected, left out, and unloved by the school. I'm sorry on behalf of the business school," he told at a gala event to celebrate the 50th anniversary of women MBAs at the school.
"The school owed you better, and I promise it will be better," CNN money quoted Nohria as saying.
