Past Events Recap
The year was off to a great start for Stanford Women in Business, as the Membership Kickoff on Thursday, October 5 proved. Forty-five young women interested in the different fields in business attended that evening not only for the presentation that informed them of all the benefits of being a member, but also for a glimpse into the community of undergraduate women they would soon join. Please visit our website for a full downloadable version of the presentation!
