Next Two Meetups

We'll be having our next meetup on September 17th, with more opportunity for socializing, networking, and discussing the latest round robin question.

Along those lines, if you have an industry-related question you'd like to discuss with alumni, and a favorite Manhattan bar/lounge that has a quiet private area we can rent (for cheap), let us know.

We will also be having an NYU-sponsored event on October 28th, which will be open to all NYU alumni and will feature a guest speaker as well. More information to come.

And since we want alumni getting involved, if you work with someone you think the alumni would love to hear speak, and/or would like to suggest someone we can invite, please let us know.

So save the dates; share your ideas with us; and Joanne, Ania, and I look forward to seeing you there.

Good night.
