RECRUITMENT AND SCHOLARSHIPS/FELLOWSHIPS
What programs and initiatives has your school found successful in the recruitment of minority and/or female students?
Diversity is a key strength of the Berkeley MBA program at the Haas School of Business. Its participation in MBADiversity.org, The National Society of
Hispanic MBAs, Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers, Management Leadership for Tomorrow, Riordan Fellows programs and Forté Foundation
helps it reach a greater cross section of potential MBA talent.
The Haas School organizes a variety of events to encourage applications and interest from participants from diverse backgrounds. Every fall the school
hosts a series of diversity workshops and a diversity conference. The three workshops focus on women in business, lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgender
issues and on diversity issues in general, including disabilities, breaking through glass ceilings, cultural diversity and managing and leading diverse
organizations. The conference features keynotes from corporate leaders and an MBA Diversity Recruiting Workshop.
The schools’ students are its best ambassadors. In addition to playing key roles in organizing the diversity workshops and conference, they are active
in Reaching Out. In spring 2009, Khuram Hussain, Berkeley MBA 10, won the Reaching Out Case Writing Competition. In October 2007, the Berkeley
MBA student club Q@Haas cohosted the Reaching Out national conference on GLBT issues in San Francisco.
Please describe any scholarship and/or fellowship opportunities for minority and/or female students attending your school.

Learning from experience: How do experts think about possible pasts (historical counterfactuals) and probable futures (conditional
forecasts)? And how do experts respond to confirmation/disconfirmation of expectations?

University of California, Berkeley (Haas)
Designing accountability systems: How do people cope with various types of accountability pressures and demands in their social world?
When does accountability promote mindless conformity? Defensive bolstering of prior positions? Thoughtful self-critical analysis? …
De-biasing judgment and choice: How can organization structure incentives and accountability procedures check common cognitive biases
such as belief perseverance and overconfidence? What adverse side effects can such de-biasing efforts have on quality of decision making?

ORGANIZATIONS AND STUDENT LIFE
Please provide information on your school diversity student and alumni organizations.
Latin American and Hispanic Business Association (LAHBA)
groups.haas.berkeley.edu/lahba
The LAHBA is much more than a social club; we organize and sponsor a variety of activities to heighten the cultural, economic and political awareness
of our region and our culture. As members of the association, we act as ambassadors of our countries as well as the Latin American and Hispanic
communities. We organize activities to allow our members to come in close contact with companies in the region and to teach our fellow students
about our culture and traditions.
Additionally, the association facilitates international career searches by helping members become familiar with business opportunities in Latin-American
countries, fostering communication between students and alumni and supporting academic and professional networking with other Latin-American
and Hispanic associations. Our community goes beyond classes; we are more than classmates, we are friends.

University of California, Berkeley (Haas)
Finally, our association really takes advantage of everything the Berkeley area has to offer, which makes life really enjoyable. Beautiful beaches, ski
resorts and national parks, complemented by some of the best weather in the United States, are a perfect reward after a week full of study and social
engagements. We invite you to join us, you do not need to be Latino!
Black Business Students Association (BBSA)
groups.haas.berkeley.edu/bbsa
The Black Business Students Association is committed to enriching the academic, professional and social experience of Haas students from and
interested in the African diaspora. Our mission is to foster academic and professional excellence, leadership development and community involvement.
We encourage and support participation in business plan competitions and networking events such as the Haas Diversity in Business Conference and
the National Black MBA Association Conference. In the upcoming year, we are pursuing opportunities to mentor youth interested in business and
partner with other graduate student clubs to support diversity initiatives within the university and the Bay Area. Our sponsored events will also include
cultural activities that engage BBSA members and the Haas community in celebrating our diverse interests, perspectives and contributions to business.
q@haas
groups.haas.berkeley.edu/q/index.htm
q@haas serves the gay, lesbian and bisexual and transgender community at Haas, increasing the visibility of sexual-orientation issues both at Haas as
well as across the campus. In addition, our goal is to enhance the awareness of managing diverse sexual orientations in the corporate world and work
toward making that world a more accommodating place for gays and lesbians. The club has both a social and professional purpose and sponsors
events both on and off campus.
Women in Leadership (WIL)
groups.haas.berkeley.edu/wil/2006/index.html
WIL’s mission is to serve the entire Haas community through a series of professional, educational and social events designed to enhance the
understanding and appreciation of women’s roles in business while equipping WIL members to achieve success.
Beyond hosting the annual WIL conference, WIL offers regular social events and an annual retreat. As women at Haas, we appreciate and contribute
to its collaborative culture and entrepreneurial spirit. Just looking around, it is easy to see that female student leadership is disproportionately high.
In addition to leading almost half of the student-run clubs at Haas, women founded two of the pre-eminent business plan competitions among business
schools—the Berkeley Business Plan Competition and the Global Social Venture Competition. Additionally, many of the clubs at Haas are run by female
presidents and officers, including Haas Student Ambassadors, the friendly faces you may remember from Super Saturday or school visits.
Diversity Alumni Group
The mission of this new alumni group is to create a network for minority alumni to build their interest and support for diversity initiatives, fundraising
and outreach at the Haas School of Business.
Please also provide information on any programs, including on-campus and universitywide programs in which MBA students participate that focus on
issues related to women or minorities.
Diversity, equity and inclusion office at UC Berkeley
diversity.berkeley.edu
The University of California has long valued the goals of diversity, equity and inclusion as essential ingredients of excellence in higher education. These
ideals have recently been articulated by its academic senate, president and Regents. Under Chancellor Birgeneau’s leadership, the Berkeley campus
has taken an important step toward realizing them by creating the position of vice chancellor for equity and inclusion. With responsibilities to all
members of the campus, it is one of the most comprehensive approaches in the nation.
At the Haas School the previous Dean Tom Campell in 2003 created a faculty diversity committee, currently led by faculty member Tim Dayonot, to
monitor faculty hiring and promotion practices of the school with respect to diversity issues.
Please describe any off-campus resources, activities, programs and/or organizations that may be of interest to minority or female students.
