THE FUTURE

If Harvard Business School's Class of 1949 was known as the class the dollars fell on, the Class of 2000 could be called the class that opportunity — and stock options — rained on.

Whatever their chosen path, Dean Clark told the students: "I don't believe a class at Harvard Business School has graduated with more opportunity in front of them than you. You can literally change the world. Choose wisely and choose well."

The graduates join an elite group of CEOs, heads of nonprofits, world leaders, and humanitarians who have walked across the Aldrich Lawn, studied at the Baker Library, and lived in the school's red-brick dormitories before them. In two months, the Class of 2002 will come to take their place.

As one grad carried his young daughter across the stage, took his diploma, and walked back to rejoin his classmates, he cooed to the girl who was tugging at the document: "You'll get one of these one day." Perhaps in the Class of 2025?
