NYIT students found them-
selves in the hub of some of the world's largest and most influential financial organizations when they participated in the second annual "Day on Wall Street" on Nov. 5. Organized by the Office of Alumni Relations and the School of Management's Student Advancement Programs, the event featured a visit to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York -- including a tour of its gold vault, hosted by Rosanne Stichnoth (M.B.A. '82), the bank's senior vice president of operations. The students also toured the Museum of American Finance and had lunch with several NYIT alumni who are enjoying successful careers in finance. Pictured: The group in front of historic Federal Hall.
