With:
 * Rebecca Henderson, Eastman Kodak Professor of Management, MIT Sloan School
 * E. Sarah Slaughter, Senior Lecturer, MIT Sloan School

People often affect the world most directly through their careers. Join Dr.
Rebecca
Henderson, Dr. Sarah Slaughter, and your fellow students for a discussion of
social and
environmental responsibility in the working world.  Professors Henderson and
Slaughter
will share their personal stories, then we will participate in a short
facilitated
discussion in small groups about ways we can make a social and environmental
impact
through the work we do.  Also, learn about the Graduation Pledge, a way to focus
and
express commitment toward socially and environmentally responsible career
choices.

Pledge.
