2022 Fall Ball Recap

2022 Fall Ball Recap

By sternoppy and Isabelle van de Walle on November 15, 2022

“Fall Ball was one of the swankiest parties I’ve ever attended. Between the ambiance, drinks, photo booths, and music, it was hard to not have a great time. The venue was packed, which sometimes made it hard to find friends, but even if it took a while to find who I was looking for, I ran into so many interesting conversations and groups along the way. Can’t wait for spring fling!” – Dani Elwell

Getting that yellowtail at TAO! Last Saturday SGOV and LSG hosted Fall Ball: Dress to the nines at TAO Downtown.

This was a momentous event. Finally after this long pandemic, we are back to co-hosting events!…

2022 New York City Marathon Recap: Kelly Rupinski

2022 New York City Marathon Recap: Kelly Rupinski

By sternoppy and Giovanna Pipin on November 15, 2022

The New York City Marathon took place on November 6th. It is a massive event that was established in 1970 and is always held on the first Sunday of November. It has only been canceled twice – in 2012 after Hurricane Sandy, when many runners traveled to Staten Island and Brooklyn to support recovery efforts, and in 2020 due to COVID. In 2021, the pandemic precautions limited the number of competitors to 33,000, but this year 50,000 racers were expected. The marathon grew from 100 spectators watching 127 competitors in 1970 to the largest marathon in the world, with around 2 million spectators lining the course and millions watching it over ESPN broadcasting and online streaming as well.…

Registration and Lottery Perspective

Registration and Lottery Perspective

By J.P. Eggers, Vice Dean for MBA Programs and Christina Lev, Executive Director, Records & Enrollment Services on October 11, 2022

You know about the core courses for your MBA program, and you know you will also take many elective courses. As an indication of the richness of course offerings at Stern, can you guess how many electives we offer? The answer is almost 200 different elective courses and almost 400 total sections of those courses! And we introduce an average of 15 new courses per year. With core courses, so many electives, and all of our continuing students, we have instituted a sophisticated lottery and waitlist system to provide equitable access to registering for courses. As most of you know, some of you will get the exact courses you request, but some will not.

David LaChapelle’s Fotografiska Exhibit

David LaChapelle’s Fotografiska Exhibit

By Aindrilla Mukherjee on October 11, 2022

“I believe that artwork is only finished once it is met by the viewer.”- David LaChapelle

Last week, in the middle of a torrential downpour, the Stern Arts, Culture and Cuisine Club sojourned to Fotografiska New York, located in the heart of one of New York’s most quaint and idyllic neighbourhoods, Gramercy Park. A branch of Sweden’s famed centre for contemporary photography, Fotografiska is a haven for culture and creativity, with thought provoking exhibits that inspire one to break out the mould, bare their soul and pour it on paper.

The Graduate: Conor Clark, Oppy Alumni

By: Phuong Tran

This month’s The Graduate features Oppy alumni Conor Clark, whose career has traversed architectural engineering, consulting, and as of late, a band, music label, and acting. He maneuvers these ventures with the grace and business acumen of someone who has…you guessed it, an MBA. I’ve known Conor since I took over his famous Stern Singles column (from which he is now engaged!), and it was wonderful to catch up and learn more about just how applicable business is in every interest you may have in life.

Conor Clark…where do we begin with him?…

The Beginning of the End of the Golden Era of Tennis

The Beginning of the End of the Golden Era of Tennis

By Ria Jambusaria on October 11, 2022

It is January 2017. Roger Federer and Serena Williams have won the Australian Open. Little did we know, this was their last dance together.

2017 was the year of the throwback. It wasn’t long after Roger, Rafa, Serena and Venus had all been declared “done,” “over,” or “washed” (depending on what part of the world you were from). Roger and Rafa went on to split all four Grand Slams that year. Serena beat Venus in the 2017 Australian Open final while she was two months pregnant. As someone who grew up in the era of the “Big 3” and as an unapologetic Rafa Nadal fan, the Australian Open in 2017 was the most fun I have had watching a Grand Slam, despite the result (Federer beat Nadal in the fifth set after beating a breakdown).…
