ADA HANDBOOK

Hello and welcome to all Ada Comstock Scholars! You are at the beginning of an amazing and unique journey of self-discovery, a journey that you will share with other Ada Comstock Scholars. Please know that the whole Smith community values your presence and admires your dedication to your own education.

We know that you have received a lot of materials from the college in the last few months. But this online handbook is something special because current Adas and the Ada Comstock office staff wrote it just for you.

We hope this information will be a useful guide as you learn your way around the Smith and Northampton communities. Next year you can add your own suggestions to help make the new edition even better. Thank you to Maria Mark AC'04J for all her help in editing the handbook and for compiling the Northampton Community section.

Again, welcome and best wishes!

Erika Laquer, Dean of the Ada Comstock Scholars
