Interview with Rahim Kurji at Wharton School of BusinessWhat is the most interesting thing you did pre-Wharton?

Prior to Wharton, I spent the last five years working for the Clinton Foundation in various capacities. From 2006 to 2008, I had the opportunity to launch and coordinate our efforts to assist the Government of India in implementing its National Pediatric HIV/AIDS Program, which has enabled more than 12,000 children living with HIV/AIDS to access comprehensive treatment, care and nutritional support.

Wharton Journal » Meet the Class of 2013: Rahim KurjiRahim Kurji (POS 1997) was elected as student body president at Brown University in 2003—the first Muslim elected to any such position in an Ivy League school. Rahim says he learned at Post Oak, “Better to fail at something big than to succeed at something small.” After graduating from Brown, he is spending a year working with pediatric AIDS patients in India for the Clinton Foundation, working on the program administration for setting up a nursing clinic. He is currently considering either a master’s degree in public service or law school.
