From the Caribbean to Campus

When Joseph Benfield ’91, Kathy-Ann Edwards ’93, and Franklyn Smith ’89 arrived at 17³Ô¹ÏÍø from across the Caribbean, they found more than an education—they found a community that believed in them. Now, they’re channeling their shared experiences into meaningful impact.

Henry Richard '25: Running Through Life

Lubin School alumnus Henry Richard ’25 has a deep passion for running. He’s completed nine marathons to date, and April 20’s Boston Marathon will mark his tenth. It will also be a return to the site where his life changed forever—where tragedy struck his family during the Boston Marathon bombing thirteen years ago this month. Read more about how Henry has used marathon running as a way of overcoming loss, building community, and becoming the best version of himself.
