Pat McCabe '74, head of the lower school at New Roads School in Santa Monica, was the inaugural speaker in the Alumni Speaker Series on Monday, September 22. Pat spoke to middle-school students about his decision to leave a 23-year career in sports marketing to move into a career in education and philanthropy.
The Alumni Speaker Series was conceived in 2007, "to introduce the Harvard-Westlake student body to the outstanding professional and charitable accomplishments of the school’s alumni through a regular speaker series. The series would include alumni from diverse occupations, highlighting individuals whose stories and experiences would challenge students to consider their own character and potential."
