Alumni

A Force within the FOLD

Falcons of the Last Decade Board

FOLD logo

In 2019, Falcons of the Last Decade (FOLD) was created to engage alumni who graduated from Bentley University in the last 10 years. The mission of the FOLD program is to create both a professional and dynamic set of activities and networking opportunities for young alumni with a roster of active volunteers — the FOLD Board. Enhancing the alumni experience for their peers, Board members will help create well-thought-out and intentional opportunities for young alumni to engage with one another, deepen their relationship with Bentley and be inspired to give back to the community through their time, talent and treasure.
