With heavy hearts, we share the passing of Eileen Moran Brown, the Founder and first President of Cambridge College.

Eileen passed away on September 28 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. She was a bold visionary, a champion for adult learners, and a tireless advocate for educational equity. Her mission was clear: to break down barriers and make higher education accessible to all, regardless of age, background, or circumstance.

Her legacy lives on in the lives she touched, the opportunities she created, and the vision she built from the ground up. Read more about Eileen Brown: https://www.cambridgecollege.edu/news/memoriam-eileen-moran-brown

Sharing a message from our Cambridge College Alumni and Advancement Office:

🎓 Grateful for you—and one last opportunity to support learners this year.

As we wrap up the fiscal year today, we’re reflecting on the incredible impact we’ve made together through the partnership between Bay Path University and Cambridge College. Thanks to your support, learners balancing school, work, and family are one step closer to graduation—with access to scholarships, career guidance, mental health services, and more.

Through the Carpe Diem Annual Fund, the Cambridge College Annual Fund, or Scholarship Support for both institutions, you help ensure every learner has what they need to thrive.

❤️💙 Let’s finish strong—there’s still time to make a difference before midnight!

👉 https://www.baypath.edu/support-bay-path/annual-fund/

P.S. Your gift—no matter the size—has a direct, personal impact. Give by June 30 to help a learner walk across the graduation stage. If you’ve already made your gift or it’s on the way, thank you so much for your support!
