Through her involvement in student government, Casey-Fleener has worked with members of the administration and the board of trustees to advocate for students. Graduating this year as a sociology major and an education minor, she hopes to bring her passion for advocacy work into the educational nonprofit world. After her sophomore year, she worked at The Partnership for Afterschool Education in New York City, where she taught at a summer school program for fourth and fifth graders. Upon graduation, Casey-Fleener will attend Smith College’s Master of Arts in Teaching Program. As unpredictable as her senior year has been, she feels honored to serve and represent her class. Kathleen McCartney Smith College President Kathleen McCartney is the 11th president of Smith College. A summa cum laude graduate of Tufts University, she earned master’s and doctoral degrees in psychology from Yale University. Prior to Smith, McCartney was dean of the Harvard Graduate School of Education—only the fifth woman dean in Harvard’s history. McCartney has conducted research on childcare and early childhood experience, education policy and parenting. She is the author of nine volumes and more than 160 journal articles and book chapters. McCartney is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the National Academy of Education, the American Educational Research Association, the American Psychological Association and the American Psychological Society. She has served on the boards of a number of nonprofits, including the American Council on Education, the Consortium on Financing Higher Education and Bellwether Education Partners. The Boston Globe named her one of the 30 most innovative people in Massachusetts in 2011. She received the Harvard College Women’s Professional Achievement Award in 2013, and the Boston Business Journal named her one of its Women of Influence in 2016. Candidates for Honorary Degrees Gwen Agna* Educator A tireless advocate for students and teachers alike, Gwen Agna recently retired after 24 years as principal of Northampton’s Jackson Street School. A 31-year employee of the Northampton Public Schools, she had previously served as the early childhood and civil rights coordinator. Before that, Agna was an elementary school and preschool teacher in Rhode Island and Ohio. Born in Burma (Myanmar), and educated there, 3 in Haiti and Ohio, Agna earned her undergraduate degree from Nottingham University (U.K.) College of Education and her master’s degree from Antioch University New England. She has traveled extensively and in 1999 received a Fulbright Memorial Fund Teacher grant to study in Japan. Deborah Bial Founder, The Posse Foundation An expert in the field of higher education administration, college success and leadership development, Deborah Bial is president and founder of The Posse Foundation, an organization that sends teams (posses) of students from diverse backgrounds to selective colleges and universities. Since 1989, The Posse Foundation has identified 10,000 Posse Scholars—including 60 who have attended Smith in the past six years. Nationally, these young people have won $1.5 billion in leadership scholarships from Posse’s partner colleges and universities and are graduating at a rate of 90 percent. In 2010, President Barack Obama named Posse as one of 10 nonprofits with which he would share his Nobel Peace Prize money. Bial has received a prestigious MacArthur “genius grant” from The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, as well as the Harold W. McGraw Prize in Education. A member of the Brandeis University Board of Trustees, Bial earned her undergraduate degree at Brandeis, and holds master’s and doctoral degrees from Harvard. Joanne Campbell Affordable Housing Advocate In her 20 years as executive director of Valley Community Development, Joanne Campbell transformed the landscape for underserved residents of the Pioneer Valley. Before her retirement in 2020, Campbell oversaw the development of more than 300 homes and apartments, ranging from single-person housing to family housing. She was also instrumental in creating a housing pipeline of nearly 120 homes that have been successfully zoned, funded and approved; those homes are expected to come online in the next two years. During Campbell’s tenure, Valley Community Development provided counseling and support for more than 8,000 homeowners and more than 2,000 small businesses. Campbell’s leadership has extended beyond the Pioneer Valley: she chaired the board of directors of the Massachusetts Association of Community Development Corporations and served for more than 20 years on the board of directors of Way Finders, Inc., a regional housing agency. Christiana Figueres* Diplomat and Environmental Activist A Costa Rican citizen, Christiana Figueres was the executive secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change from 2010 to 2016, overseeing the delivery of the historic Paris Agreement on climate change. For this achievement, Figueres has been credited with forging a new brand of collaborative diplomacy and received multiple awards. Since then, Figueres has continued to accelerate the global response to climate change. Together with Tom Rivett-Carnac, she founded Global Optimism Ltd., a purpose-driven enterprise focused on social and environmental change. Figueres is also a co-host of the podcast

  • Trinity College Bulletin, November 1951
    1-1RINITY COLLEGE ALUMNI NEWS ISSUE NOVEMBER 1951 HARTFORD CONNECTICUT Bulletin President's Page To Trinity Alumni: By this time we are well into the one hundred twenty-ninth academic year of the College. In a few more days, half of the 1951 football season will have gone by, the Sophomore Hop will have been held or thrown (annually, the proper verb becomes apparent only in retrospect ), and even the hardiest of our undergraduates will have formed the conclusion that the climate of Hartford in late October calls for clothing a little more substantial than summer sports jackets. Text books have all been purchased, R.O.T.C. uniforms have come or are arriving, no more changing of courses is permitted and classes have thus settled down to something like a normal routine, and Dean Clarke's very commendable social program for the Freshmen has shown the Class of 1955 the road to N'ohhampton. The fraternities have chosen their pledges, and both groups are justifiably happy about the re­ sults. For reasons that evade my comprehension, students still ride in automobiles from the houses on Vernon Street to the Chapel and to classes. In short, the old order has not changed so very much since the days of many of you. There is, however, one distinctive aspect of the fall of 1951 which all of you, if you come here, would perceive and, I am sure, regret. We do not have enough dormitory space. There are 922 undergraduates registered at the College this year, 614 of whom are in residence on the campus.

  • Racial and Socioeconomic Exclusion in the Built Environment in Williamstown
    1 Racial and Socioeconomic Exclusion in the Built Environment in Williamstown 1 Katie Orringer and Morgan Dauk Clients: Bilal Ansari and Andrew Art Fall 2020: ENVI 302 Professor Sarah Gardner 1 “Trump Administration, Week 183: Friday, 17 July – Thursday, 23 July 2020 (Days 1,274-1,280),” 0AD. http://muckrakerfarm.com/2020/07/trump-administration-week-183-friday-17-july-thursday-23-july-2020-days-1274-1280/. 2 Recognition of Privilege As a foreword to our report, we recognize our own white privileges in a society that is plagued with prejudice against people of color. In researching and writing about the history of Williamstown, we understand that we have not been subject to the same biases that have impacted minority groups for hundreds of years. While we cannot fully understand the extent to which racism has affected individuals and families from our own experience, we hope that our efforts to describe the events of the past pay tribute to the pain and suffering that many people of color have had to endure. Overview of Project This report was conducted as a semester-long project for Williams College's Environmental Planning Workshop (ENVI 302). This class is one of the required courses for seniors to complete to fulfill their Environmental Studies Major and/or Concentration (minor). The professor for this course is Sarah Gardner. Professor Gardner connected clients from the Williamstown community with Williams College seniors taking this course. Students worked with various clients on unique planning projects. 3 Table of Contents Introduction...........................................................................................4-6
