“Monday, first day of orientation week for MBA program. I entered the old auditorium in the University Student Center and immediately saw this gorgeous blonde girl sitting across the room. She wore a black summer dress and a denim jacket and looked incredibly smart and sexy. Little did I know when I entered my first class, she was already sitting there, so I knew she was going to be in all my cohort classes for at least one year. I thought: ‘Score...’ Fast forward 25 years, and our daughter is now a senior at the Elliott School and loves the campus/city as much as we did.” – Jorge
