United Kingdom
Kellogg Alumni Club of London

London hosted the first European Alumni Club planning session in November, which was attended by club presidents and board members from Spain, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, France, Ireland, Greece and Israel. Ideas were successfully exchanged. Veuve Clicquot sponsored a champagne tasting for 60 Kellogg alumni and guests. Nearly $1,200 was raised from £5 tickets to aid The Children's Section of the Refugee Council. The winner of the raffle received first-class tickets for two on Eurostar and a private dinner at the Veuve Clicquot mansion in Reims, France. Because it coincided with the European Alumni Club planning session, Kellogg School Dean Dipak Jain (who sipped sparkling water) and staff members Roxanne Hori, Heidi Diedrich (who won a bottle of champagne) and Jim Corboy also attended.

	London club members have been busy with a full slate of activities, including a champagne tasting for 60 Kellogg alumni and guests.

The Kellogg Alumni Club of London launched a joint TGIF with Columbia Business School in January and will cohost a Chicago-themed TGIF with the University of Chicago in May. These initiatives are part of the club's continuing efforts to provide peer networking opportunities for alumni. We are planning numerous educational and social events for 2003. Whether you live in Europe or are planning a trip to London, you are invited to join us. For information, please visit the European Web site.
