| As associate director for external affairs at the National Museum of African American History and Culture, Beverly Morgan-Welch ’74 strives to illuminate the influence, history and experiences of black people in the United States. “The influence black people have on America begins at the country's beginnings. We just don't know it,” she says. "When we know it, we will be a different America." |
Smithies got their wish yesterday when President Kathleen McCartney called Mountain Day. Many started the morning off with cider and doughnuts at the President's House. Alumnae from around the world sent best wishes, with one alumna writing, "One of the best of Smith traditions! I might have to take a hike up our mountain in memory of those days." Enjoy this Mountain Day tribute from the Smithereens. |
