Bart Hale '00
Director of Alumni Relations
Bart joined the Development and Alumni Relations office in 2010, but his relationship with the school first began in preschool at age 4; he is a proud member of Calhoun's Class of 2000. Bart attended Colgate University, where he earned a BA in political science and served as student body president.
Bart is an avid sailor, racing competitively around the country, and he has competed in two Sunfish World Championships. If Bart could be a Calhoun student — again — he would love to take part in former Chef Bobo's Politics of Food class.
