Spring Break Reunion Extravaganza!
It’s been almost a year since we graduated from the Johnson School. Corporate life may not allow you time for Spring Break but that doesn’t mean you can’t have one anyway…and who better to go on Spring Break with than your fellow MBA classmates?! So spend a few hours with old friends catching up on the past year while sipping fun drinks with umbrellas as you overlook Times Square.

So plan your escape on April 24th and go on Spring Break again for “one last time” – you deserve it!

When: Thursday, April 24th from 7 – 9 PM

Where: Ava Penthouse Lounge, New York, NY

Cost: $25 per person, includes wine/beer and hors d'oeuvres

Manhattan Alumni Events - THIS WEEK!

Hey NYC-ers! There are two back-to-back events happening this Thursday, September 27th in Manhattan.

At 7:00pm, the Johnson School Club of New York is holding a wine & cheese event at Bottlerocket Wine & Spirit (5 W. 19th St.) The cost is $35 per person, and tomorrow is the last day to register! Click here to register for this event.

When the event at Bottlerocket ends at 9pm, the Class of 2007 Metro Area Alumni is holding its first official gathering at Heartland Brewery on Union Square (35 Union Square West, just south of Bottlerocket). No RSVP is necessary for this one, and there will be a cash bar available.

Classmate Blog: Jocelin Dills

I've gotten my first classmate blog link: Jocelin Dills' Eating Out. Jocelin gives very detailed reviews of some of Ithaca's top restaurants, covering everything from the entrees, to the wine service, to the bread plates (or lack thereof). Give it a look!

Do you have a blog or website you'd like me to feature? Email me your link to get a quick review and a spot on our class blogroll.

Welcome Class of 2007!!!!!

We are very excited to kick off our class events...the Class Gift, Grad Week planning, and our new website and blog!

You probably came here from the website, and may be wondering, "What's the blog for?" The website is the information hub. That is where you'll find schedules, directories, contact information, comprehensive class news, and our class scrapbook.

This is for staying in touch. This is where we can make fast announcements and ask your opinions, you can tell us what you think and talk to each other, and guest authors can write articles about what they're thinking and what they've been up to. Or just hang out. Look here for classmate articles, calls for feedback and ideas, and insight into what we're thinking as we plan for graduation and beyond.

Our first call(s) to action:

1. We need to collect photos, videos, and stories from your time here at The Johnson School.
   
1. For photos, we are asking that pics be uploaded to Flickr, and tagged with "JGSM2007." If you have a set from a specific event, tag with "JGSM2007EventName." Email me and tell me what your tag is. I'll put together a Flickr badge and add it to our upcoming 'Scrapbook' page.
2. For videos, please upload your video to YouTube, and send me the link. I'll embed your video on our site.
3. For stories, send me your story with one or two pics (if you want) and I'll add them to the website.
2. We also need your help writing for this blog. If you would like to be added to our list of guest contributors, please email me. In your message, please include where you will be located after graduation, and any particular topics you think you will want to write about.
3. We'd like to feature classmate blogs and websites. If you have a site or blog that you would like to share, let me know and I will add you to the list at the right.
   

I'm done talking...now it's your turn! What do you think? What would you like to see us add to the things we've been working on? Click "comments" below this post and let your voice be heard!

(This is an open forum; however, use your discretion when posting. Personal attacks and highly inappropriate content will be removed. I don't really think there will be any problems among class members, but it needs to be stated.)
