During the January interterm, Smith Dining Services staff developed new, tasty vegan and vegetarian breakfast options. See the article written by Rachael Haney Hagerstrom ’02 on the college’s website to learn more.  The article includes links to the recipes, student and staff responses to the new offerings, and a reminder that the changes support the college’s sustainability pledge.

from Fund Chair Gwen Mattleman: 

We have very good news. Thanks to your positive response and generosity, we exceeded our class Financial Aid Campaign challenge! According to GiveCampus, we had 41 donors who gave a total of $28,433—we were the second highest in total participation out of all classes back to the class of ‘29!

For myself and on behalf of Adele, Vanessa, and all of our class officers, heartfelt thanks to everyone who gave in this campaign, including those whose non-GiveCampus gifts are still being counted. This is a MAJOR accomplishment for the class of 1977, and you should all be very proud. KUDOS to everyone who participated. We’ll update when we have final totals from Smith reflecting nonGiveCampus gift sources. Meantime, here’s to all of you and to our class in the coming year! Cheers!

A new campus building—to be named Kathleen McCartney Hall for the college’s 11th President (and our Honorary Classmate!) —will create an integrated and inclusive central hub for student leadership and career development. The new building will house both the Smith College Lazarus Center for Career Development and the Wurtele Center for Leadership. It will overlook Paradise Pond and support the college’s sustainability goals and landscape master plan. Learn more here.

Have you heard? Alumnae House has undergone a top-to-bottom renovation, and it looks great! Several classmates already have visited the space, in conjunction with President Willie-LeBreton’s inauguration. Click here to see more photos and learn more about the updated spaces.

Several classmates met on campus to celebrate the inauguration of President Willie-LeBreton on October 21, 2023. Thanks to Marjorie Meiman, Gwen Mattleman, Maureen Tobin, and college photographers for the photos.

Onward To Our 50th and Beyond….

The Smith Class of 1977’s 45th Reunion was wonderful.   165 Classmates joined the celebration either in person on campus or through the magic of zoom.   Over the coming weeks we will be adding photos and memorabilia from reunion to the archives on this website.

There was considerable interest in connecting by zoom on a somewhat regular basis between now and our 50th, maybe starting in the fall.  We will message out plans here, by email (so be sure the college has your current email- smithierecords@smith.edu), and on our class facebook page)
