From the President’s Desk
In early May, more than 350 students received diplomas at Bridgewater College’s 145th Commencement ceremony, completing their journey here. And in mid-August a new class of first-year students will arrive to take those graduates’ places and begin a journey of their own. For many of us at the College, graduation and move-in day mark the two most exciting days of the academic calendar. But it’s really what happens between those days that matters most: lessons learned, connections made, skills acquired through hands-on learning and more.
