Upcoming: Sloan Leaders In Service Trek to New Orleans

I applied and have been accepted to work on a Sloan Leaders in Service Trek (SLST) to New Orleans this February. A group of 20 Sloanies will be partnered with New Orleans' entrepreneurs in order to help in their re-development of the City of New Orleans. We will be collaborating with Idea Village in New Orleans to help out. It should be a great trek and one that will be a great experience for everyone involved. You can read more about Idea Village and some of the other projects that have been completed by other MBA's from around the country at http://www.ideavillage.org/ideacorps/about.php. You should all take a quick second to go to this site and read up (they also have a good video about the economic landscape and potential for development). I'll post again soon once we have been partnered with the local entrepreneur.
More later....
