As our students, faculty and staff prepare to log off for what I hope is a restorative break, I am already excited to welcome them back for 2022, when we’ll be celebrating Bay Path’s 125th year.
I wanted to use my last blog post of 2021 to offer a peek behind the scenes of our 125th celebration. Entering this joyous time of year, I felt inspired to share some of the images we’ve gathered that demonstrate the spirit of this celebration, and more so, the enduring character of the Bay Path community. I am so proud to be a part of this amazing institution, where empowerment, camaraderie and progress inform my day-to-day work. I’m excited to share our story and our vision as we look ahead to a bright future. Carpe Diem! And Happy Holidays!
