Rotman MBA Students Host Open House for Women

TORONTO, March 14, 2001 -- TORONTO - An initiative by female MBA students at the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management to encourage more women to enroll in the program kicks off tonight with an open house at the Rotman School.

The Rotman Women in Management Association hopes the informal reception will help potential female students discover the value of pursuing an MBA. Event organizers, Eliza McDougall, MBA/LLB’01, and Catherine Ward, MBA’01, say the evening provides a friendly atmosphere in which women can meet with female students, graduates, and faculty of the Rotman MBA program.

“It’s an opportunity for women who may have never considered enrolling in an MBA program to ask questions about the degree and the career opportunities it leads to,” says McDougall.

The open house is the first of two events this month sponsored by the Women in Management Association. On March 23rd, the sixth annual Women in Management Conference takes place with Lorna Borenstein, general manager, eBay Canada, as guest speaker.
