Number 28 Ilene Gordon '75, SM '76 is chair, president, and chief executive of Corn Products International, one of the world’s largest food ingredient companies, which supplies the beverage, pharmaceutical, animal feed, and paper industries.
She received her bachelor's degree in math before moving on to Sloan for her graduate degree.
Student Life
What's a day in the life of a current Sloanie? Business Insider asked first-year grad student Kendall Herbst to document a 24-hour period. Take a look at her photos.
Herbst came to MIT with a background in fashion magazines. Read her stories in Lucky, New York, and InStyle.
These days, she works for a fellow Sloanie's Twitter news aggregator start-up, Koowala, and recruits at luxury fashion companies.
