Beyond the MBA Classroom: LPF Happy Hours at Stanford

When you select an MBA program, you are not just choosing your learning environment, but are also committing to becoming part of a community. Each Thursday, we offer a window into life “beyond the MBA classroom” at a top business school.

Essentially happy hours, Liquidity Preference Functions (LPFs) at the Stanford Graduate School of Business are weekly opportunities for students to get together to enjoy spirits at local establishments after classes on Fridays. Even alumni have been known to arrange LPF events during reunions.
