Infectious enthusiasm. A "can do" spirit. And a leadership style all her own. These are
just some of the qualities of the outgoing president of the Alumni Association, Courtney
Whalen '00 G'10. And Courtney has done it all: she campaigned for the Annual Fund,
manned the alumni table at the Women's Leadership Conference, attended Board of
Trustees meetings as the alumni representative, and laced on sneakers to run the Carpe
Diem Dash. We've probably missed 50 other things. Yet, there is one thing we do know.
She will be sorely missed. But according to Courtney, "I love Bay Path…I'm not going
away." For that, and so much more, we are deeply grateful. Courtney's presidency is
bittersweet and historic…she is the last President of the Alumni Association under the
designation of Bay Path College.
Carpe Diem!
New at the helm and leading us into the latest chapter in Bay Path's history is Jessi Santos '05 G'10. A member of the
Alumni Association Council for the last five years, Jessi's forward-thinking leadership and passion for service is
already making a difference, but she notes: "I hope to build on Courtney's accomplishments and learn from the great
work of my predecessors. It is an honor to represent our 14,000 Bay Path alumni worldwide!"
