| Former Smith College Board of Trustees Chair Kate Belcher Webster ’46, who died last month, was remembered recently as a well-respected and generous leader in the Seattle, Washington, area. She was also a dedicated Smith volunteer. In 2003, Webster received the prestigious John M. Greene Award for her long and distinguished service to Smith. |
In this video and story package, Professor of Philosophy Al Mosley discusses his recent paper, “Narratives on the Ethics of Living in the Jim Crow South,” in which he reflects on his childhood, his philosophy of race and the choices that led him to the academy. |
Thanks to the success of the Women for the World campaign, which raised $486 million, Smith is reimagining the liberal arts, putting particular focus on interdisciplinary courses and launching new majors and initiatives such as design thinking, statistical and data sciences and Middle East studies. |
