What does the Young Alumni Network mean to me?
"Following graduation I wanted to remain active in the GW community as well maintain the relationships formed during my years in business school. I found this opportunity by joining for the Young Alumni Network (YAN). With a full calendar of career development activities, social activities, and volunteering events, I am able to regularly connect with my classmates. Being an active member of YAN is an incredibly rewarding experience that keeps me returning for more."
