The first coed graduate program was established in 1958. Hollins enrolls approximately 750 students in its undergraduate and graduate programs. Students enjoy Hollins’ challenging and supportive academic environment and its focus on personal contact. In preparing students for career excellence in the sciences, social sciences, arts, and humanities, Hollins emphasizes a broad liberal arts curriculum that offers strong academic programs, superior teaching, and extensive study abroad, leadership, and internship opportunities. Hollins University has long been recognized for the hundreds of well-known writers it has produced—among them Annie Dillard, Lee Smith, Margaret Wise Brown, Madison Smartt Bell, Kiran Desai, Margaret Gibson, Elizabeth Forsythe Hailey, Jill McCorkle, Henry Taylor, and Natasha Trethewey. Hollins’ distinctions include a renowned graduate creative writing program; active writer- and artist-in-residence programs; a January Short Term that enables students to pursue internships in careers across the globe, participate in travel/study programs, or focus intensely on an unusual course or project; one of the oldest abroad programs in the country; a first-year seminar program; an honors program for first- and second-year students; and a leadership program that offers executive-level training to undergraduates. Hollins’ 475-acre campus is located in Roanoke, Virginia, a metropolitan area of 250,000 set in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The Appalachian Trail and Blue Ridge Parkway are minutes away. Within an hour’s drive are 10 colleges with an enrollment of 35,000 undergraduate students. MISSION OF

  • Forging a New Path
    FORGING A NEW PATH, SWEET BRIAR TURNS TO THE FUTURE Dear Sweet Briar Alumnae, Throughout this spring semester, distinguished women musicians, writers and policy makers have streamed to the campus, in a series dubbed “At the Invitation of the President.” As you will read in this issue, the series started in January with a remarkable all-women ensemble of scholar-performers dedicated to excavating little-known string trios from the 17th and 18th century, and it ended the semester with a lecture by Bettina Ring, the secretary of agriculture and forestry for the Commonwealth. Sweet Briar was a working farm for most of its history, a fact that does not escape the secretary, both as an important legacy we share and cherish, but also as a resurgent possibility for the future — for Sweet Briar and Central Virginia. Through this series, one learns stunning things about women who shape history. A gradu- ate of Sweet Briar, Delia Taylor Sinkov ’34 was a top code breaker who supervised a group of women who worked silently — under an “omerta” never to be betrayed in one’s lifetime — to break the Japanese navy and army codes and eventually to help win the Battle of Midway. Ultimately, the number of code breakers surpassed 10,000. While America is a country that loves and shines light on its heroes, women have often stayed in the shadow of that gleaming light; they are history’s greatest omission. “Do you like doing the crossword puzzle?” Navy recruiters would ask the potential code breakers. “And are you engaged to be married?” If the answer to the former was a “yes” and to the lat- ter a “no,” then the women were recruited to the first wave of large-scale intelligence work upon which the nation would embark.
