One of the hallmarks of the Yale School of Management is our commitment to the diversity and individuality of our students. Because statistics don't fully capture a true sense of the people who are so integral to our community, we would like to share some lesser-known facts that go beyond the numbers.

The talented and accomplished members of the Class of 2010 include musicians - a harpist, blues guitarist, rock band manager, and Chinese zither player, to name a few; athletes - among them a former competitive figure skater, captain of the Turkish national swim team, a national cricket champion, and a coach for the Special Olympics; and community volunteers - such as individuals dedicated to helping their communities through natural disaster relief and organizations like Big Brothers/Big Sisters and Best Buddies.

Yale SOM also gains a former Jeopardy contestant, a torch bearer for the 1996 Olympics, the #1 young entrepreneur according to Business Week's Top 25 Under 25, several published authors, a founding member of Google China, and a select few with top secret government security clearance.

These are just a few examples of how our students have an impact on the world around them. To learn more about our community, you can reach out to our students directly.
