Our 1stGenYale tables drew a great deal of interest during the YAA Shared Interest Groups fair at the Schwarzman Center during Yale College reunions for class years ending in 4s and 9s. Board members Marv Berenblum ’56 and Jackson Higginbottom ’20 MPH represented 1stGenYale on May 25, and Ellen Ryan ’77 and Yen Tran ’22 MBA hosted the tables on June 1.
As Ellen noted, “Many alums were not aware of the scope of aid and networking opportunities that we provide for Yale students and alums. The 1stGenYale community continues to grow not only in number, but in breadth, across Yale College and all of the Yale Graduate and Professional Schools and class years.”
Other highlights were visits from President Peter Salovey ’86 PhD and new YAA executive director Alison Cole ’99.
