ALUMNI COUNCIL TRANSITIONS TO NEW LEADERSHIP Calling All Penguins!

Reunion weekend marked a transition in leadership for one of Penguin Nation’s key organizations. Valerie Bono-Bunker ’97 stepped down from being the Alumni Council chair after three and a half years. A two-year term is more typical, but the pandemic put things in a holding pattern. Director of Alumni Relations Brett Torrey ’85 praised Val’s leadership, passion, and drive throughout this unusual period. The new chair is Chelsea Cummings Koski ’03 (pictured left). Koski plans to work to grow the council numbers and also expand on the work of the council to engage as many members of Penguin Nation as possible.

Alumni who are interested in joining the council are invited to reach out to Torrey or any other member of the Alumni Council for more details about the expectations and responsibilities of the position.
