The club will provide mentorship and networking opportunities to enable personal and professional growth, advocate for affordable social and academic activities, and highlight the unique perspective and value of FLI students to the Sloan community. FLI @ Sloan welcomes students who self-identify as FLI as well as allies from all backgrounds.
