Alumni Society Advisory Board Names New Chair

Joseph L. Sorbera III ’08, outgoing chair of the Alumni Society Advisory Board, transferred leadership of the Board to his successor, Paul DiPietrantonio ’97, at the Board’s May 6 meeting on campus.

DiPietrantonio joined the board in 2020; since then, he has served on the Student Engagement Committee, a group he began chairing in 2022.

A proud first-generation college student whose parents emigrated to the United States from Italy, DiPietrantonio graduated from the University in 1997 with a B.S. in Accounting. Since then, he has worked in accounting and finance and currently serves as CFO of a family-owned real estate company.

DiPietrantonio is an avid advocate for promoting Jesuit ideals and The University of Scranton. His love of service initially took root during his student days at the University, where he was an active participant in annual volunteer trips and on-campus events, and, since graduating, he has regularly participated in Scranton’s Day of Service events. He is also involved in volunteer organizations in the Hudson Valley and attends fundraisers benefiting charitable organizations.

DiPietrantonio enjoys spending time with his wife, Elizabeth, daughter, Lucy, and son, Franklin Harvey, at their home in Kingston, New York.
