On Wednesday, July 22, the Boston Bates community gathered high above the city at Savills<\/em> in the Prudential Center<\/em> for an evening of networking, mentorship, and summer celebration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Co-hosted by the Bates College Center for Purposeful Work<\/strong> and the Office of Alumni Engagement<\/strong>, the annual Boston Bobcats Student & Alumni Networking Reception brought together local alumni across diverse industries alongside current Bates students spending their summer interning in the Greater Boston area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Special thanks to our host, Nick Beati \u201920<\/strong>, Director at Savills, for welcoming us to such an iconic venue. Although unexpected summer weather moved the reception indoors from the rooftop terrace, the rain couldn’t dampen the crowd’s enthusiasm. Guests enjoyed sweeping views of the Boston skyline through floor-to-ceiling windows, delicious hors d\u2019oeuvres, and\u2014most importantly\u2014energetic conversations bridging generations of Bobcats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
