A rigorous education includes many types of
learning experiences: faculty-student research opportunities, leadership of campus
organizations, responsibilities for residence life activities, volunteer work in
local communities, participation in regional and club sports, and internships that
range from studying coral reefs to learning international banking.
With support from alumnae, parents, and friends, Smith
provides such experiences to all students through innovative programs.
 Smith
is the first college to provide access to a supported internship opportunity for
all students through its Praxis program and has pioneered in equipping students
for responsible fiscal management through the Women
and Financial Independence program.
The Lewis Leadership Program, an intensive series of
courses and projects, trains participants in research, management skills, team leadership,
and the professional presentation of ideas.
To promote civil discourse, faculty, students and staff
are involved in listening, learning, and discovering the skills everyone needs to
engage in constructive debate in classrooms and in daily life.
Together with resources such as the Poetry
Center and a planned building for the sciences and engineering, the college
enters the 21st century continuing to support its mission of providing the finest
possible education for women. |
