As Betsy Newman '97 prepares to leave Babson for a new position as the vice president for student affairs, dean of students at Berklee College of Music beginning in October, she leaves the College with an incredible array of talented staff, a myriad of new and reinvigorated facilities, and an entrepreneurial leadership framework by which our students live and learn 168 hours a week on campus.
