Congratulations to the Barnard College Class of 2024! It was wonderful to celebrate your academic achievements at Commencement last week. Thank you, Dr. Ruth Simmons, for your touching keynote address. The College was honored to present you with the Barnard College Medal of Distinction for your extraordinary contributions to higher education.

The Barnard Annual Gala was one of the first events I attended as a new member of the Barnard College community. I remember being so moved by the generosity in the room. I am so excited to join the community once again for this invaluable source of support for our students - if you can't attend in person this year, I hope you will join us via our livestream! https://bit.ly/3Jjc7UQ

Yesterday, Barnard College gathered on our very own Futter Field to watch the solar eclipse. It was great to come together on campus for this unforgettable rare experience! Thanks to the Barnard Physics and Astronomy Department and Residential Life and Housing for providing our solar eclipse glasses. 😎
