Leadership Council News: Arcadia University Class of 2016 Steps to the Future; Lois Haber receives Honorary Doctorate, gives commencement address at Graduate Ceremony

​Via Arcadia University:

Over 1,000 Arcadia University students earned doctoral, master’s, and baccalaureate degrees at Graduate and Undergraduate Commencement ceremonies on May 19 and 20 on Haber Green.

At Thursday's Graduate Ceremony, Honorary Doctor of Humane Letters recipient Lois Haber ’71, ’16H retired CEO and President of Delaware Valley Financial Services (DVFS), encouraged those receiving doctoral and master’s degrees to find their own path to happiness, even if it is one they did not expect.

Haber shared her own life experiences with graduates, talking about how her greatest accomplishments in her career were not planned. As an English major, Haber said, she always imagined a career in publishing. However, opportunities arose that eventually led to Haber be a co-founder of DVFS, a technology focused, leading third party administrator to the insurance industry of variable and fixed annuities and variable life insurance.

“My journey has been exciting, scary and rewarding, offering many opportunities,” Haber said. We are fortunate to live in a world of possibilities. Aim high and have the courage to live the life you are meant to live.”
