Into the Mind: William Counts explains his independent alumni group’s opposition to a controversial partnership
Why does your group have so much passion about the Thunderbird School of Global Management?
The effect Thunderbird has had on our lives, as well as the lifelong friendships and experiences we have had because of our education, cannot be replicated at any other institution.
We are passionate about our alma mater because Thunderbird’s 40,000 alumni have been uniquely enriched at the Glendale campus. To witness the current Board of Trustee’s blatant disregard of the impact Thunderbird has had on our lives is a breach of trust and responsibility.
