Blog Archive Beyond the MBA Classroom Closing Bell at Yale SOM When you select an MBA program, you are not just choosing your learning environment, but are also committing to becoming part of a community. Each Thursday, we offer a window into life “beyond the MBA classroom” at a top business school. The Yale University School of Managements (SOMs) weekly happy hour, Closing Bell, takes place on Thursday nights. Given that students have no classes on Fridays, Closing Bell kicks off the weekend. Generally held at an off-campus location, this event is attended by students and their partners as well as by faculty and staff. According to one second year mbaMission interviewed, “It’s a great chance to catch up with friends after a busy week and to make plans for the evening, which often includes a trip to GPSCY [the Graduate Professional Student Center at Yale, aka Gryphon’s Pub] or other popular watering holes like Mory’s, Richter’s, or Anchor, or quieter dinners and gatherings.” For in-depth descriptions of social and community activities at Yale SOM and 14 other top MBA programs, check out the mbaMission Insider’s Guides.
