Alumna & Shore Chapter Member Florence MacLearie '56 poses with her grandson, Nick Hayduk '18, at
The Shore Area New Student Meet and Greet
The New Student Meet & Greets, held in Spring Lake and Upper Saddle River, offered incoming students and their families a chance
to meet other incoming students, parents, alumni, and representatives from the College.
Frank Salerno '02, who attended the Bergen County area event, felt that his participation helped him reconnect with the college and its students in meaningful ways. "The changes Caldwell College makes year after year, even semester to semester, are too much information for any newsletter or meeting to really summarize and deliver," Salerno stated. "After recently spending time with current and soon-to-be new students, I'm even more convinced that the best way to stay on touch with the needs and goals of Caldwell College is to be in direct contact with our great student body. I was glad to have an opportunity to connect with them."
