Reasons to Celebrate Smith

We restore the places that hold our stories.

Clara Taplin Rankin ’38 wore her graduation gown to the 1938 dedication of the Alumnae House, a Georgian and neoclassical building on Elm Street that for the past 87 years has welcomed generations of returning Smithies. “Alumnae House looked so beautiful,” Rankin recalled in an essay for the Quarterly. “It fit in so well architecturally.” A top-to-bottom renovation completed in 2023 restored the building’s elegant exterior while updating it with energy-efficient systems and a new Welcome Center for meetings, teas, and other Smithie magic.

A Culture of Curiosity

Isa Otero ’26

Theatre major

“It’s not uncommon that you’ll see a dancer featured on a Smith College stage, only to discover that their major is quantitative economics. That’s what drew me to Smith—the possibilities for students to pursue their varied passions, drawing strong connections between seemingly opposing fields.”

“Being a Smithie means making space for others. Continually pushing the limits of what I think I can do. Trying new things. Taking risks. Being willing to change and adapt as my knowledge of the world expands.”

“Many of the colleges I got accepted to weren’t very generous with financial aid. Smith was different. The no-loans program meant that I could pursue my education without worrying too much about the financial burden on my family.”
