Bringing together SEAS alumni
The popular Networks
reception series was re-launched at SEAS on May 19th.
The original series, which ran from 2000–2004 brought together alumni from different Harvard schools who worked in technology fields.
The latest incarnation invites SEAS alumni from all fields and professions to reconnect with their former classmates, friends, and professors.
The recent event was a great success, providing an opportunity for SEAS alums to meet Dean Cherry A. Murray for the first time.
In addition to catching up and networking, attendees were treated to a talk by Stuart Shieber, James O. Welch, Jr. and Virginia B. Welch Professor of Computer Science.
Shieber, one of the thought leaders in the open source publishing movement, gave an interactive and engaging overview of the often counterintuitive economics of journal publishing, entitled, "Apples at $25 a Pound: a Scholarly Enigma."
Thanks goes to those who convened the group: Susie P. Case, AB ’79, MBA ’83; J. Christopher Flowers, AB ’79; Professor Harry R. Lewis, AB ’68, AM ’73, PHD ’74 ; Michael P. Pascucci, AB ’85; Professor Margo I. Seltzer, AB ’83 and Christopher A. Thorpe, AB ’97, SM ’06, PHD ’08.
We are currently planning for a second Networks event soon.
Stay tuned for details.
