Laura T'13, February 26, 2012
The on-campus recruiting process was definitely a whirlwind. There were so many companies coming on campus, so many of my fellow classmates in suits, and so much extra stress around campus. Luckily, this period is over. Not so luckily, I didn’t get an internship offer. Continue ReadingWhat Comes Around Pt. 2-Stephen Pidgeon, T’07

Pete. T'13, February 24, 2012
With Winter term almost behind me, what is next on the agenda? Well that is the decision I have to make. Spring term allows for first-year students to choose from a variety electives. I must say I am glad the core curriculum is so comprehensive. One reason I chose Tuck Continue Reading
