While most students were away for the summer, the Residence Campus continued to hum, welcoming guests for conferences, summer camps, and other events.
This summer, the Conferences & Events team put one of the College’s most valuable resources to very good use:
- We welcomed more than 1,400 guests over a six-week period
- The residence halls were occupied for a total of more than 6,500 bed nights
- Over 15,000 meals were served in Bartol Hall
- Summer revenues saw an 18% increase over 2015
Throughout the year, the Conferences & Events staff works to connect Simmons to the city of Boston and beyond—continuing to raise the profile of our campus in the community while identifying opportunities for revenue growth.
