Public Policy Forum 2016

“During the panels, student poster sessions, and David Wessel’s keynote address, students were able to learn about policy issues from experts in their respective fields, while also hearing the personal stories of how these alumni made their way from Haverford toward their own career trajectories.” - Dean of Career and Professional Advising Kelly Cleary

The Public Policy Forum featured alumni discussing issues in education, environmental policy, health, incarceration and criminal justice, poverty and homelessness, and big data.

Sharing A Hobby, Faith, or Mission With Your Roommates

The 11 upperclass students who live in Music and Arts House came together last spring to create a space for artists to collaborate and share their work with the greater Haverford community. Their home was one of five community houses to have its application approved by the Residential Life Committee. They now serve the campus with programming and events.
