UB School of Management community poses for ‘Human 100’

BUFFALO, N.Y. — As the yearlong recognition of the University at Buffalo School of Management’s 100th anniversary draws to a close, students, alumni, faculty and staff donned their UB blue apparel and gathered on May 8 at Clemens Field for a commemorative photo — in the shape of a huge 100.

More than 300 participants enjoyed pizza and a DJ as they took part in this once-in-a-lifetime event. UB photographer Meredith Forrest Kulwicki captured the photo from the roof atop the 10-story Clemens Hall on UB’s North Campus.

With help from a number of experts in the UB community, the planning committee had a schematic outline drawn, which was then painted onto the field by an autonomous GPS field marking robot in preparation for the photo.

“As we celebrate a century of academic excellence and impact, the human 100 symbolizes the strength of our community,” says Ananth Iyer, dean of the School of Management. “Together we embrace the past, present and future — and our shared commitment to shaping a world where business operates as a force for good.”
