Exciting Changes in Store for Alumni

It comes as no surprise to me: When a challenge is issued to Bentley alumni, you get right down to business.

Thank you to all alumni who participated in focus groups this fall and took time to complete our online survey. We were excited to receive your feedback and learn more about what's important to you. Now, the Center for Alumni, Parents and Friends is prepared to use your responses to guide some big changes. Work is underway to launch programs and services that will better align with your interests and values, and which strengthen your connection with the university.

The future of Bentley is directly tied to alumni involvement.  Your passion for our great university and desire to help today’s students develop into tomorrow’s business leaders continue to fuel our progress. I look forward to working alongside you to improve your connections with one another, with the school, and with current students.  Stay tuned for additional details in the next edition of the Observer.

And don’t forget: Our signature event for Bentley grads — Reunion Weekend 2011 — is right around the corner. I hope to see flocks of alumni from classes ending in 0, 1, 5 and 6 on campus during the first weekend in June!
