Smith College, one of the nation’s original “Seven
Sister” colleges and an institution with longstanding ties to Asia, is hosting
discussions in major cities throughout the continent about its success in educating
young women who transform their communities and change the world.
Smith President Carol T. Christ led a six-city
tour which began in Tokyo November 9 and included visits to Seoul, Hong Kong, Singapore,
Mumbai and Delhi.
At each event, President Christ spoke about
the important role Asia will play in Smith’s future, and how Smith intends
to educate today’s students to be the global leaders of tomorrow.

media interviews.
