Menlo Competes at the NAIOP SV University Challenge
In November, students of the Real Estate Center program took part in the 2021 University Case Study Competition in Santa Clara. The competition is sponsored by the commercial real estate development association known as NAIOP, and this year’s audience included Menlo trustees, faculty, and staff, along with hundreds of Certified Real Estate professionals from around the Bay Area. Wiley Gross ’22, Team Captain Michaela Haynes ’22, and Wolfgang Lachance ’23 represented Menlo with their proposal for a new development project in Sunnyvale’s Moffett Park. Their pitch was singled out for its professionalism and ambition – characteristics that are surely shared broadly among Oaks everywhere.
