From the Desk of President David Hayes '93

Higher education is changing rapidly, and Coe is embracing the challenge. Through this series of letters, President David Hayes '93 shares reflections on the forces shaping Coe today — and how our community is responding with purpose and creativity. These messages explore themes like innovation, relevance and student success, with a focus on how alumni and friends play a vital role in Coe’s continued momentum.

We invite you to read, reflect and join the conversation leading up to our 175th anniversary celebration in 2026.

More to come soon!
