Message from Admissions:

We've asked some of our students to provide insights on their experiences
at Yale SOM through this newsletter. In this issue, we have updates from the Black Business Alliance and the Women in Management club. These two organizations are pillars of our community, providing resources and support for their members as well as programming that creates value for all students at the school.

Another article in this edition tells the story of how five student clubs banded together to put on a well-attended event looking at the experiences of gay and lesbian MBA students. This kind of collaboration is a regular, though always special, occurrence at Yale SOM.
