Dear Class of 2030, Welcome to Sarah Lawrence College! As you begin your first year here, we wanted to welcome you not only to campus but to the community that you are now a part of. Sarah Lawrence is a place that is shaped by the incredibly unique people who pass through it.

Charlotte Doyle has made history as Sarah Lawrence's longest-serving teaching professor, entering her 60th year of teaching at Sarah Lawrence College. Stepping onto campus in 1966, Doyle knew she was right where she belonged.

Before last spring, a Hampshire College student’s worst nightmare was letting a University of Massachusetts (UMASS) Minuteman get the better of them. For Ethan Gordon, at the time a Junior at the late establishment, this was certainly the case: “Of course we were constantly joking about when Hampshire was going to close, but the second a UMASS student said something, I’d clap back.” One email sent out April 14th changed that forever, and declared to the school that Gordon and his friends bonded over defending closed. It condemned the students to something else, too: the decision to give up or transfer.
