Celebrating 150 Years

A Culture of Community

Kristine Le ’25

Biochemistry major; Statistical & Data Sciences minor

“I’m looking at graduate schools now, and I always ask them about their engagement. The robotics outreach program is a group effort of the student team, the community partners, and the Jandon Center. The center took a chance on me and funded my proposal. That’s what I love about Smith: You have an idea and a passion, and they’ll support you.”

Discover Community Engagement

Becky Shaw

Associate Dean of Students

“Working at Smith has been such an honor and a pleasure for 20 years that it doesn’t always feel like work... Smith, in my mind, is like no other college community. It truly, truly is a special place.”

Loretta Ross

Associate Professor of the Study of Women & Gender

“I start off almost every class telling [my students], ‘I can do two things. I can protect you from the truth, or I can teach you about the truth, but I can’t do both at the same time. But I’m going to make you proud to be alive right now knowing you can make a difference.’”

Nancy Weiss Malkiel ’65

Professor Emerita of History, Princeton University

“Take every opportunity to get to know Smith alumnae. I have forged friendships with an amazing array of women—some 30 years older than I am—women who have modeled for me ways of living a productive and fulfilling life that I could not otherwise have imagined.”
