Dear prospect sponsors: In behalf of the Rice MBA students interested in the Energy Industry I want to thank you for your interest in the Energy Club and present to you the club's program for the academic year 2001-2002.  We have a great number of opportunities and the attached program provides an overview of the topics for the academic year 2001-2002.  I would like to take this opportunity to present to you how the club intends to involve and educate the students' body on the Energy Industry, and I would also like to present the format we will use for this end. We have three levels that built one upon the other.  The first level is a general understanding of the Energy industry, (see Energy 101 event).  The second level it refers to the opportunities available for MBAs in the Energy industry, (see rest of the program), and the third will focus on the opportunities/profiles in demand now, (no identified yet).   The format is a roundtable presentation in which representatives from different companies bring they perspective and work experience, relative to the topic of the meeting.  Each roundtable has or will have a leader and moderator; the leader is responsible for organizing the event and it is your reference.  Please contact the person associated to the event if you are interested in participating in that specific roundtable. If there is no name feel free to e-mail me.  The Energy club heavily depends on your participation and your support will definitely bring value to all students in different ways.  You will also attract more talents, help students to take a better-informed decision with regard to the professional future, and establish a more intimate relationship, mutually beneficial for students and companies. Next step.  This coming Friday we are hosting the Energy 101 roundtable.  In this case the leader, Craig Parks, will have in the panel students with relevant work experience in the Energy Industry.  Please see the attached file if interested.  Next week I am going to submit the Program to all first and second year students, I aspect to have the list of the moderators by the end of the next week.  I will promptly notify all of you. If you are not interested in receiving further information about the Energy Club please e-mail me and I will withdraw your name from the list.  If you believe in this initiative an admiring comment is welcomed.  I will collect all your feedback and implement them if possible in this same academic year or leave them as guides for the next year. Thanks in advance for your support, Sincerely,  Luigi CalabresePresidentRice University Energy ClubJones Graduate School of Managementhttp://www.ruf.rice.edu/~luigical
