Hurricane Sandy Impacts Hundreds of BB&N Alumni/ae BB&N followed with deep concern the reports and photos coming out of New Jersey and New York in addition to other heavily impacted regions as Hurricane Sandy battered the East Coast in late October. After the storm hit, Head of School Rebecca T. Upham sent a letter to the more than 700 alumni/ae families who reside in the most dramatically impacted areas. “Please know we are thinking about you,” she wrote. “Stay safe and we hope you’ll contact us if there is any way in which we can be of help.” Kristaps Aldins, a 2000 alumnus who is the head baseball coach at Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, N.J., checked in with the Alumni/ae Office on November 1st with this firsthand account:
“As some may have seen on the news, our city most certainly has gone through some trying times the past few days.... During the storm and in the days afterward, I volunteered at Stevens with the on-campus emergency response team. We most certainly had some sleepless nights, but everyone on campus was able to escape without any injuries. The campus only sustained some minor damage and some downed trees. “Dealing with this hurricane at Stevens has taken a full team effort and I am confident that the experience will bring all of us even closer together.” For Kristaps and all the other members of our alumni/ae family, BB&N sends its best regards and we hope that all have come through the storm safely.
