The Bay Area World Learning Alumni Council (BAWLAC) brings SIT and Experiment alumni together in the San Francisco Bay Area at informal gatherings once a month. What is outstanding about these gatherings is not only that they are a lot of fun, but also that each of the alums share a common experience and common interest. Every BAWLAC member, whether they have spent a summer or semester abroad or completed a graduate program at the SIT campus in Brattleboro, brings a positive and proactive world view to the group as well as stories of their unique experience and how that experience has shaped their lives and their goals for the future.
Needless to say, an event hosted by BAWLAC is an opportunity to network and also to unwind. BAWLAC provides the kind of comfortable atmosphere that can only exist among a group of people who, at least one point in their education chose to question their role in society ask how they can improve the world today.
Craig Madsen is the coordinator of the San Francisco Bay area alumni group and is an alum of SIT Study Abroad. If you would like to get involved with any of our regional alumni networks around the country, please click here.
