Welcome to the Wharton Club of Atlanta website!  Our new and improved website is now officially connected to and part of the Wharton School main database system: a new Wharton Global Network called Wharton Connect. This creates a direct link to the Wharton database and results in our alumni managing one user profile. In addition, this new site enabled us to make several advances in how the club services its members. We can share news, events and have created a searchable member database.

With all of these new advancements, the Wharton Club of Atlanta is gearing up for a year packed with engaging programs and networking opportunities. Our Board of Directors and alumni volunteers are already working hard on a slate of innovative events. Among our first events of the year, we have our first Happy Hour at JCT. Kitchen scheduled on September 25th. On October 23rd, we have a special event at Wicked the Musical with special guest Steve Quinn, Company Manager of Wicked Tour Productions, LP. We are also working on a lecture by a visiting Wharton professor, among others. Through partnerships with other clubs and the Atlanta Business School Alliance – we will make a full agenda available to our members.

Of course, your participation is key to our community's success. Membership dues in particular provide the financial support our community needs to host events and provide membership services each year. Having alumni and alumnae join as Club members makes a real difference. Membership is only $49 per year. Everything we do depends on alumni and alumnae joining as Club members. If you haven't already done so, we urge you to support the club and join or renew your membership today!

Finally, an enormous amount of volunteer effort has gone into creating this website over the last few months, and this will continue as we add new features in the coming weeks. Your support, patience, and understanding are appreciated as we work out the inevitable kinks.

With our new website and your active involvement and support, the officers and directors of the club look forward to continuing to strengthen our alumni club and network!

Best regards,

Brian Hankin, WG '97
President
