Webster Athens thanks AHEPA Hellas - District 25 for its extensive and moving tribute to our late rector and managing director, Professor Vasilis J. Botopoulos, and for honoring him at his funeral service in his hometown of Tripoli.

In its tribute, “The AHEPA Family Bids Farewell to a Great Brother,” AHEPA Hellas reflected on his life, contributions and lasting impact: “For Vasilis, education was about more than academic knowledge. It was a way to bring young people closer to their roots and build bridges between Greece and the Greek diaspora.”

“The thousands of young people who experienced Greece through Journey to Greece will forever remain a living part of his legacy.”

We are grateful to AHEPA for honoring his dedication to education, youth and Hellenism.

“Vasilis has spent over a decade building something rare at Webster Athens, a campus that reflects his and Webster's own character: rigorous, warm and deeply rooted in place, time and opportunity,” said Ryan Guffey, executive vice president of Webster International.

“What strikes me most is his instinct for stewardship – the sense that a university is something you’re entrusted with, not something you simply run,” Guffey added. “Webster Athens today, and everyone it has shaped, carries his imprint and we couldn't be prouder to carry it forward.”

The Webster community mourns the passing of Webster Athens Rector and Managing Director, Professor Vasilis J. Botopoulos. Botopoulos served Webster Athens as its inaugural rector and managing director since 2014.
