AFLSE Annual Report for 2008 and Events to Welcome 2009

Dear Reader,

Although many faced increasing economic uncertainty as the year came to an end, we are pleased to report that the AFLSE had a highly successful year, thanks to the commitment of President, Leon Desbrow, Chapter leaders and many others who contribute time and energy to the organization (see AFLSE Annual Report for 2008).

As the New Year begins, please take note that Ben Bernanke, Chairman of the Federal Reserve, will deliver a lecture at the LSE on Policy Responses to the Financial Crisis.  The Tuesday, January 13, lecture will be delivered at 1:00 pm UK time.  It will be webcast live and be available for future viewing. 

AFLSE Chapters are also developing their New Year programs.   In particular, New York, Los Angeles and Chicago have an agenda of social and other events.  Chicago alums are invited to an evening of political discourse with Nate Silver, statistician, political scientist, and alumnus on January 28.  Los Angeles alumni/ae are invited to the following:  a New Year Mixer on January 15;  a Career Planning Workshop on the 18th, in conjunction with the local Harvard Business School Association;  a Classic Film Series showing on the 22nd, and a family-friendly "British Pantomime" on January 31.  The New York Chapter and the LSE Financial Services Group invite local alums to a downtown social on January 15, and the Seven O'clock Club continues its "First Monday" mixers on February 2nd.  A limited number of tickets for the March 8 performance of the hit musical Billy Elliot are also available for AFLSE members and guests.  Do not miss out on this opportunity!

Links to the items noted above are shown below or LOGIN to http://www.aflse.org  While you are online check that your AFLSE membership is current.  If not, please review all the benefits available, which include "members only" events and preferential pricing for most other AFLSE activities.  

All best wishes for a peaceful and more prosperous 2009.
