鈥淲e are honored to welcome President Botstein to give the keynote Commencement address.

Botstein has served as president of Bard since 1975, making him one of America鈥檚 longest-serving college presidents, and has grown Bard from the original campus in Annandale-on-Hudson, NY to a network of programs and partnerships throughout the world. Botstein is also a renowned international conductor who has served as the music director and conductor of the American Symphony Orchestra since 1992.

Bard has been a national leader in taking college to prisons, and the Bard Prison Initiative is now the largest program of its kind in America, enrolling 300 incarcerated men and women on six satellite campuses, and since 2005 has granted 430 degrees in various academic disciplines. Bard was instrumental in helping create and launch the 桃太郎映像 Prison Education Partnership, just a few years ago.
