Welcome to the B&E Newsletter!

We hope you enjoyed the B&E Club Kickoff last week and are excited to get involved this year. The B&E newsletter is an approximately monthly email highlighting upcoming B&E events, as well as other events of interest across Yale. We also highlight some sustainability-oriented internship and job postings, articles, and more. This month's newsletter will be a bit shorter than usual as we get our plans underway.
