Peace activist Jonathan Granoff ’70, who has devoted his professional life to warning of the dangers of nuclear proliferation, came to the Vassar campus to accept the 2023 Alumnae/i Association of Vassar College (AAVC) Distinguished Service Award.
Vassar recently hosted a three-part webinar titled “Innovation in Higher Education: Building Capacity for Inclusive Leadership” that featured conversations with people in the academic and business worlds. All agreed that transforming global society into a more equitable one will require today’s students to engage in a broad, liberal arts education.
Dr. Margaret “Peggy” Hamburg, a nationally recognized public health expert with unique ties to Vassar, will deliver the Commencement address at the 159th graduation exercises May 21.
Vassar President Elizabeth H. Bradley furthered the College’s partnership with the University of Global Health Equity (UGHE) during a week-long visit in January to the Rwandan university.
