Annual South Bay Alumni Networking Event

2008-03-28T20:57:00.000-07:00

Dutta attended the South Bay Networking Event held at Menlo Circus Club and hosted by Steve Herrick, BS 60. For those who missed it here is an excerpt from Dutta's blog.

"Late last month the Haas Alumni Network hosted the Annual Haas Networking Event - South Bay. This was my second time attending the event and as usual it was completely sold out soon after it was announced.

The event is held at the Menlo Circus Club and hosted by Steve Herrick, BS 60. The event starts with a reception and networking. This provides students with a friendly environment to meet alumni and peers. It is a great opportunity to know more about any person and also learn about his or her career/industry. I tried to make rounds of the room specifically trying to apply some of the tips that I learned from a "how to" networking session hosted by the Haas career services...."

The last time we witnessed this degree of inequality was in the 1920s, but by many measures we haven't been this unequal since the 1890s and the era of the "robber barons." Why is it occurring? Is it a problem? If so, what can be done about it?

Reich with Professor of Public Policy at the Goldman School of Public Policy at the University of California at Berkeley. He has served in three national administrations, most recently as secretary of labor under President Bill Clinton.

In 2003, Reich was awarded the prestigious Vaclev Havel Foundation Prize, by the former Czech president, for his pioneering work in economic and social thought.
