Faculty Convocation Returns to Campus!

The 2022 Faculty Convocation, held last Thursday in the NVC’s Simon Conference Room, welcomed 58 new faculty members, celebrated career milestones, and recognized this year’s Presidential Excellence Award winners. Provost Linda Essig (left) and President S. David Wu (right) gave remarks and presentations, and Sankar Sen (center), Lawrence and Carol Zicklin Chair in Corporate Integrity and Governance, delivered the keynote address, “Wherefore Marketplace Morality?”

 

Community Highlights

 

On-Campus Events Celebrate Alumni and Donors

  • Nine Baruch alumni who have made a difference in their companies, industries, and communities were honored in the inaugural Changemakers Award Dinner and Ceremony, hosted by the Office of Alumni Relations and Volunteer Engagement. View the photo gallery.
  • The Baruch College Fund’s annual 17 Lex Society Reception was back in person last week following a two-year pandemic hiatus to celebrate generous donors and the major impact they have on students’ lives.

 

 

Stay Connected

Celebrando La Comunidad was a carnival-style celebration to remember! With music, games, food, and more, students came together on the Clivner=Field Plaza to connect, relax, and enjoy the festivities.

 

The Weissman School captured the upbeat and joyous energy with a post featuring a great collection of pictures from the day. The post resonated with the Baruch community collecting more than 280 likes on Instagram.
