None of America's top business schools have ever boasted graduating classes with at least 50 percent female students. But Harvard Business School hopes to change that.
Harvard has created a recruiting program called Peek, which targets juniors, seniors, and recent graduates from women's colleges. Peek will allow 50 to 70 prospective Harvard Business School students to stay on campus for a weekend in June and discuss four case studies with the school's professors. The program also offers networking opportunities with current students and alumni.
