    NYT Article on Babson

    Posted In: Babson General by Bernardo Sosa

     

     

    Today I stumbled upon this article about Babson in the New York Times. It’s more about the e-Tower undergrad community at Babson, but it speaks to Babson’s incredible entrepreneurship tradition. I’m sure there are many prospective students reading this blog now and this article can be a good way to really get to know Babson’s spirit and entrepreneurial leadership tradition.

    PS: And also, our own Anabelle Desangles (member of the Latin America Business Club) is in one of the pictures on the article…

    We are most definitely proud of both Babson College PR and Len Schlesinger, our president.

    The members of the Latin America Business Club at Babson are also fans of Tina Fey.

    Enjoy the article…

    Babson President Schlesinger Invites Tina Fey To Be Commencement Speaker

    Tina Fey expressed irritation at the Golden Globe Awards ceremony over comments posted online by “BabsonLacrosse”.  Babson College shares Fey’s emotions and has invited her to visit the campus for a true Babson experience. [Click the following link to see Tina Fey's comments:Tina Fey at the Golden Globes Ceremony 2009]

    “Babson College, including our lacrosse team, would like an opportunity to show you firsthand how our community genuinely feels about you,” said President Schlesinger in a letter to Fey.  “I can say with confidence that you have many fans on campus (I am one of them) and, since your comments at the Golden Globe awards ceremony, we have had a lively discussion about what we could do to show you that we admire and value your many achievements.”

    “To that end, I am pleased to invite you to speak at our 2009 Commencement on Saturday, May 16th.  I know that our undergraduates and their families would be interested in your advice and your “take” on the world they are entering as young adults,” Schlesinger wrote.

    Babson has been named the #1 school for entrepreneurship by U.S. News and World Report for as long as they have been ranking entrepreneurship programs, and has also been named a leading college for women by The Princeton Review and CosmoGirl magazine.  “Creativity is at the core of how we teach entrepreneurial thought and action–and we would be pleased to learn from you, one of the most creative stage and screen personalities of our time,” Schlesinger wrote.

    Schlesinger has issued an official proclamation of Babson College’s support for Fey.  (He’s also joined her Facebook fan page!)
