ALLI Program Celebrates 12th Graduation!

On Sunday, August 4, Bay Path University welcomed twelve incoming first-year students to campus for the Academic Learners and Leaders Initiative (ALLI) program. These students moved in early to participate in a transformative three-and-a-half-week experience designed to prepare them for the demands of college life. The ALLI '24 program culminated in a graduation ceremony on Wednesday, August 28, celebrating the participants' achievements.

States Erin Boutin, Director of Hatch Learning Commons: "These ALLI students are ready to succeed, and I am so proud of them! Through their hard work and determination, they have all grown in confidence and maturity in three and half short weeks—it is remarkable!"

Throughout the program, students engaged in a variety of classes, activities, and leadership opportunities that helped them build connections and develop skills essential for academic achievement.

The program's success is a testament to the expertise and dedication of Bay Path's faculty and staff, the support of the executive team and Board of Trustees, and the generosity of donors like the Charles H. Hall Foundation and former Board of Trustees member Dusty Hoyt, and his wife, Mary Lou. Most importantly, it reflects the determination and enthusiasm of the incoming students who have truly 'connected their path' and are now ready to embark on their college journey.

“For over 12 years, the ALLI program has set hundreds of students up for success, thanks in large part to the generosity of our donors and friends,” said Dr. Peter Testori, Associate Vice President of Student Engagement & Academic Resources “By building confidence, academic skills, and meaningful connections, ALLI ensures students are well-prepared for college and on the right path to graduation and successful careers.”

Carpe Diem!
