Greetings from the Communications Committee

Let's introduce our committee - Our awesome members are Sriram Kumar and Christina Stewart, Evonne Chiu, Badri Raghunathan, Min-Hank Ho, and our Co-Chairs are Ben Chong and Anlei Lee.

For the last year, we've been keeping students in the Evening-Weekend MBA program (EWs) informed through a number of channels:

1. EWMBA eZine - A weekly newsletter that is emailed to all EW students sharing news, announcements, happy hours, and more. You might ask how this differs from the MBA Alert - well, our newsletter caters specifically to the EW crowd whereas the MBA Alert is ublished by the full-time MBA folks. We also have a no-duplication policy which means if it's in the MBA alert, it isn't printed in our newsletter.

2. Cohort Representatives - First year representatives updating each cohort on eZine news and first year specific items. These folks help first years wade through all of the information overload and point out what's really important. They also help make sure that event organizers take into account the unique academic schedules of the first year students.

3. Haas EWMBAA Blog - A blog that shares what's going on in each EWMBAA committee.

4. Discussion Forum (New)

Thanks Mimi and Alison for all of your hard work last year. We look forward to bringing you exciting information in the weeks ahead.
