      Eight Yale Undergraduate students will present what they have learned during a self-designed gap semester over the past 12 weeks through a new program called Bridge The Gap

      Over the course of this semester, students worked on topics like human trafficking, carbon sequestration, art education and criminal justice. They reflected on their personal values and goals to launch passion projects within companies or independent projects of their own design. The cohort would love to involve and share the projects they have been working on during their leave of absence to Yale alums! 

      During this exhibition attendees will have a chance to engage directly with the students as they tell stories about their journey in zoom breakout rooms.

      This event is brought to you by Bridge The Gap and is co-sponsored by Careers, Life, and Yale.
