Alumnae Volunteer Summit


October 5–7, 2012

Join us for a weekend of innovative programming designed specifically for Class Volunteers. Shaped by the new cohort model for alumnae engagement, this year’s Summit offers training, discussion, and information sessions to help you better tailor outreach to the personal and professional needs of your classmates throughout their lives. Highlights of the weekend, from Friday dinner through Sunday lunch, includes:

  • Welcome from Alumnae Association President Eileen Kavanagh ’75
  • Remarks from President Jane McAuliffe
  • Bryn Mawr College Today, presentation by Chief Enrollment & Communications Officer Jenny Rickard and Chief Financial Officer John Griffith
  • Bryn Mawr’s Model for Alumnae Outreach and Engagement
  • Alumnae Panel: Successful Models for Reunion Alumnae
  • Breakfast Presentation by Bryn Mawr Faculty on Curricular Innovations
  • Conversations on Careers, informal networking with juniors and seniors
  • Plus plenty of opportunities to socialize with your fellow Mawrters

We encourage you to attend regardless of the stage of Reunion planning you are in. Starting this year, on-campus training will be held biennially and will be augmented by online and regional training.
