When you think “skiing,” you probably think of the Alps or the Rockies. We are guessing that you don’t think of Evanston, Illinois, home of the Kellogg School of Management. Well, students may not do their skiing in Evanston proper, but a remarkable 700+ first- and second-year students participate in Kellogg’s annual ski trip, which, according to students we interviewed, is “the largest group ski booking in the country.” This student-run trip, organized by Kellogg’s Ski and Snowboard Club, has been held at Steamboat in Colorado, Whistler in British Columbia, Canada, and other top skiing locales. This year’s trip will be held December 10-16 at the Telluride Ski Resort in Telluride, Colorado, and one student even made a “movie” trailer for the trip, calling it “a week not to be missed” and showing clips from past trips. Indeed, skiing is serious business at Kellogg.
