NOTE CHANGE OF TIME TO JANUARY 11th: Three MIT alumni will discuss the different paths they have taken since leaving MIT. These paths include: founding two software companies (one in Boston, one in London) and working in Japan for 11 years, becoming an executive coach, author, and communication skills consultant, and conducting scientific research in Antarctica. They will also talk about "what I didn't learn at MIT but wished I had". A discussion about taking professional risks and using MIT education in non-traditional ways will be held following the presentations.
