College Events

The Smith community comes together for events throughout the year. From the first Rally Day in 1876, to Julia Child Day and the Sherrerd Teaching Prizes, begun in 2004, the college’s annual events honor our students, faculty and alumnae for their accomplishments; bring families to campus for a taste of college life; and give students an opportunity to learn, reflect or just have fun.

Virtual Commencement: May 17, 2020

On April 14, 2020, President McCartney announced the first virtual Commencement in the history of Smith College. For details on the ceremony, please visit the Commencement page.
