AICUM's annual dinner was another smash success, with more than 400
people packing a Seaport Hotel ballroom to celebrate the vital
contributions of the independent colleges and universities in
Massachusetts.
The evening honored the Patrick-Murray
Administration for their consistent commitment to need-based financial
aid funding for needy Massachusetts college students.
A special tribute was paid to the visual and
performing arts and their importance to the culture and economy of the
Commonwealth. Performances included the Michael Sachs Trio from The New
England Conservatory of Music; Dean College performing arts students in
an exciting scene from 'The Three Musketeers,' and Pitch Slapped,
Berklee College of Music's A Capella vocal group. Student artwork was
also displayed throughout the event.
