We are honored this year to have a visit from MIT President Susan Hockfield, who will be speaking to the Club after leading the Institute for almost five years.



Since coming to MIT, Dr. Hockfield has commenced major initiatives in energy research and education, and in engineering and the life sciences. She has held a press conference with President Obama on funding clean energy and spoken on the role of the life sciences in transforming America's future.



You're invited to come meet MIT's 16th president and hear her thoughts on MIT's role in the twenty-first century. This event will also give you an opportunity to network with fellow MIT alumni in New York while enjoying hors d'oeuvres and cocktails.



Space is limited, so sign up early for what will be a very special evening and the marquee Club event of the year.



Please note: Proper attire required. Jacket and tie for men. Comparable business dress for women.
