When it comes to supporting the University of New Haven, attorney Philip H. Bartels is outspoken about his love for the school. His family has been actively involved with UNH since 1977, funding a scholarship in the family’s name and providing money to renovate Bartels Hall, the campus center.
Bartels has been a member of the university’s board of governors since 1988, following in his father Henry’s footsteps. And this summer, he was elevated to chairman of the university’s board of governors, 26-member entity that helps shape the future of the university. “It’s an absolutely wonderful place, and it’s a privilege to be part of this dynamic university,” said Bartels, who is of counsel in Shipman & Goodwin’s Greenwich office.
