Wesleyan's former president, Doug Bennet,
attended the reception to honor Patton. In 1995, Bennet asked Patton to
join his senior staff. Under the Bennet administration, Patton worked as
senior advisor for information technology, twice as interim dean of the
college and once as interim vice president for administration.
