Over the last couple of weeks a few T’14s have asked me about the rigor of the first-year curriculum. My response: challenging and demanding but fun. Yes, I said it, fun. There will be some days that are hard but I recommend enjoying the Continue ReadingLaura T'13, April 03, 2012

One of the great things about being up in Hanover is that when executives come to visit or to help lead a case discussion in a class, they come up here for more than just that. You see, when you come to Hanover you can’t exactly just swing Continue ReadingKen F. T'12, April 01, 2012

If I had a dollar for every mile travelled by Tuckies over Spring Break, I would be retired on a beach in the Caribbean. Over the two week break, Tuckies spread out across the globe! From Kosovo to South Africa, Brazil to Sun Valley, you could find Tuckies on 6 continents. Continue Reading

When my wife and I left Hanover for spring break, I had to dig the car out in the middle of another March snow storm. In the first week of the month, almost a foot of snow had accumulated in town. Oh, how times have changed! We returned from a Continue Reading
