On Wednesday, July 22, the Boston �ֲ���ý community gathered high above the city at Savills in the Prudential Center for an evening of networking, mentorship, and summer celebration.

Co-hosted by the �ֲ���ý College Center for Purposeful Work and the Office of Alumni Engagement, the annual Boston Bobcats Student & Alumni Networking Reception brought together local alumni across diverse industries alongside current �ֲ���ý students spending their summer interning in the Greater Boston area.

Special thanks to our host, Nick Beati ’20, Director at Savills, for welcoming us to such an iconic venue. Although unexpected summer weather moved the reception indoors from the rooftop terrace, the rain couldn’t dampen the crowd’s enthusiasm. Guests enjoyed sweeping views of the Boston skyline through floor-to-ceiling windows, delicious hors d’oeuvres, and—most importantly—energetic conversations bridging generations of Bobcats.

A rainy New York evening couldn’t slow down the Bobcat community! On July 9, 2026, 85 guests gathered at Acadia in Midtown for an energetic evening co-hosted by the Center for Purposeful Work and the Office of Alumni Engagement.

The room brought together 20 current student interns, �ֲ���ý parents, and alumni spanning four decades—from the Class of 1986 through the Class of 2026. Despite the weather, the energy was high as Bobcats across generations and industries shared career advice, exchanged stories, and strengthened the �ֲ���ý network in NYC.

What Attendees Said:

“At the New York Bobcats networking event, I was able to connect with an alum who not only had an eerily similar �ֲ���ý career to mine, but who has also gone on to accomplish most of my post-graduate goals. We exchanged numbers after she graciously offered to talk with me further about my professional interests, and to help in any way possible. I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to make such a surprising and meaningful connection if it weren’t for Purposeful Work (and their color-coded career stickers).”
