Social alert

Every week, the social rep of the MBAA , Newton, would send out an email reminding everyone all the important seocial event for that week. What I absolutely love about these emails is it not only the fact that it makes it much easier for us to keep track of the social events, Newton would write an anecdote which highlights the true spirit of Haas. Below is my favoriate one:


9/11
First year cohort elections are in progress, and first years are probably learning how ridiculously collaborative a school this really is. Last year, I basically negotiated with Emily Walling and then ran unopposed for Axe social rep. The negotiation went something like this:

Me: Emily, we’re both running for social rep, but I think you should take the position.
Emily: Oh no, I could never do that. You be social rep. I’ll run for communications rep.
Me: Awwww, you’re such a sweetie.
Emily: Stop, you’re making me blush!
Me: Oh you. Have you gotten your textbooks yet? Here, take mine until yours arrive from Amazon.
Emily: You look tired, let me carry you to your next class.

As you can see, Haas is not quite a shark tank. We don’t just hug trees, we live in them.

This is clearly one aspect of Haas that exceeded my expectation
