A
Message From the Dean for International Study
To the Smith community:
I am writing to inform you that,
in the wake of the catastrophic events in Japan, we have
been in contact with our six students and the Smith faculty
director of the Kyoto Program, as well as our two student
enrolled in the Tokyo program. All report that they have
not been directly affected by the disasters, although we
are awaiting word on a possible relocation of the Tokyo program.
Additionally, the college is working to assist the needs
of our Japanese students as they contact family and friends
at home.
The Alumnae Association has
developed a to check in
and share their stories.
Anyone wanting to reach out to the can send an email message.
We
are all saddened by the devastating earthquake and tsunami
and have expressed our sympathies and concerns to our Japanese
colleagues and hosts. We extend our best wishes to them as
they struggle
through the disaster in the
coming weeks and months.
We will continue
to update the Smith community as news becomes available.
Sincerely,
Rebecca Hovey
Dean
for International Study |
