FROM THE YALE CLUB OF WASHINGTON, DC PRESIDENTDear fellow alumni, I write to share an update on the Club's programming plans for the fiscal year. We will continue to host monthly lectures, virtually for now, and are excited to share plans to broaden the event topic variety offered. We intend to do so by increasing both the number and subject area of our offerings. In addition to educational programming, we aim to increase the number of events featuring faculty from Yale College as well as faculty from Yale graduate and professional schools. We also plan to increase the number of panel events and see this as a key way to engage with material by highlighting the multidimensionality of the issue under discussion. It is our hope to promote valuable connections between the subject matter experts with one another, and with the audience. One key takeaway from these past months of virtual events is our membership's strong desire to engage with each other and the content during event discussions. To further this objective, we will host more interactive sessions and use virtual "break-out" rooms whenever feasible to foster discussion in a more intimate setting. We see this as a way to create community, which stands as a bedrock principal of our Club's purpose and stated goals. Our planned expansion of the variety of programming types offered will include heritage month events, professional development and Yale alumni career stories, and instructional programming. Lastly, we are engaging with the greater Yale community to provide artistic programming content. More information will be coming out soon on this initiative! Thank you for being the best part of the Yale Club of Washington, D.C. Please reach out to me directly if you have suggestions for programming. Hope to see you soon "virtually" in one of our programs! Lauren Harris, '14, President |
