About Stern Chats

From the publisher's feed

Stern Chats is an MBA student-run podcast. Our Mission is to explore untold stories of students, alumni, administrators and faculty at NYU Stern. While NYU Stern is filled with impressive resumes, some of the best stories cannot be found on paper. Each episode features members of the Stern community and their personal stories and reflections. We hope that everyone—even beyond the walls of Stern—will listen, appreciate, and learn about the people that make the NYU Stern community what it is.
