Harvard Club of Detroit

Welcome

Learning is the only thing the mind never exhausts, never fears, and never regrets.

An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.

Greetings Friends,

Welcome!  The club is formulating ways to unite members with each other and the community.   May you heed the waning summer, which demands we gather once more to relish the warmth, and connect with events to stimulate your mind and bolster your network.   
 

For those exploring new destinations this summer, may you enjoy wondrous and safe travels.  Our recent Ann Arbor outing with our speaker Rafael Castilla, who handles the $22 billion endowment at the University of Michigan, was a true delight.  We were also quite impressed with the service at the new AC Hotel.  Many thanks to all involved.  

We are currently working with the NHL-Players Association on a charity and tribute event to honor our member Bob Goodenow, and support the children recipients of his "Dreams and Goals" initiative in mid September.  And save the date for our big MIT Collaboration, the "Michigan Innovation Forum", to be held on September 25th in Detroit.  Details coming soon.
 

Update:  George Stern from HBS has passed away at the glorious age of 88.

Thank you for your continued support, please stay connected.
