Details
WHO: All Wharton students regardless of career aspirations are welcome, although the event is most tailored to first-years and second-years
WHY: Our hope is that you will grow a sense of awareness of your own positionality within the nuances and psychological pressures of career funneling (family, peer, financial, culture, others)
HOW: We will use text references as a springboard to spend two hours discussing the value and perils of having optionality, the purpose of a business education, your definition of success/social status. You do not need to prepare or bring anything but yourself. You will be divided into small groups of four to five to create a comfortable environment to challenge and be challenged
WHEN: Choose! One session will run from 1:30 to 3:30pm and a second one will run from 4pm to 6pm. The hope is to create a comfortable space where you can feel and exist temporally outside of your routines so kindly dedicate the full two hours to the experience.
WHERE: SDHD 209. You will receive an email asking you to confirm your attendance closer to the event date, where the location will be reminded to you.
