When the sun went down the party was already going strong Nov. 1 on the lawn of New College's College Hall.
Despite the name, guests enjoyed lobster at the 40th Anniversary New College Foundation Annual Scholarship Clambake, which featured cocktails along Sarasota Bay, a buffet-style Michael’s On East dinner, speech by New College student Alexander Koutelias, a live auction and paddle raise.Â
Proceeds from the event benefited student scholarships at New College, which was recently included in the 2019 Top 5 Public Liberal Arts College list by U.S. News & World Report.
