Class of 2017, CONGRATULATIONS and welcome to Booth! We’re all so excited for you, and a little jealous at the same time since all of you are just about to start an amazing two year journey that we, the class of 2015 are just finishing. You’re in for something special, and if you don’t know that already you will after the first minute of First Day, which you should all attend!
At Booth you’ll have opportunities to meet (and have breakfast with) CEOs, CFOs, CIOs, and CTOs. You’ll travel the world, take classes in new subjects and think in ways you haven’t before. You’ll have opportunities to interview with the companies of your dreams. You’ll learn and grow and challenge yourself both in and out of the classroom. But on top of all that, you’ll meet an amazing group of people with different experiences and talents and backgrounds and interests. I can honestly say that I’ve met some of the most interesting, accomplished, and downright amazing people that I’ve ever come across during my time at Booth.
Booth is an astonishingly beautiful place (even when it’s cold) with a truly special community. “Pay-it-forward” is not an empty phrase at Booth, but rather a guiding principle that is central in every interaction both on and off campus. I can’t wait for all of you to experience that for yourselves and we at The Booth Experience are all so happy to welcome you to the Booth family!
