I just wanted to thank those of you that made it to the brunch. It was nice to meet everyone in person and celebrate the beginning of the Alumnae-to-Student Mentoring Program. I find it truly amazing what a strong energy a group of Barnard women can bring to a room, and I feel honored to be a part of it.
Please continue checking this blog and adding your comments. I will be reaching out to program participants individually and asking them to contribute to the blog (and giving them login instructions that they need to do so), but please feel free to reach out to me if you would like to add a post (rather than just commenting).
I look forward to a fabulous year!
Best,
Rachel Tannenbaum

I enjoyed the event and the speeches presented by Rachel Tannenbaum and Maryangela Moutoussis. The Barnard alumnae were all very helpful and friendly. I look forward to all the upcoming events!
ReplyDeleteIt was a great Brunch with a nice space, good food and inspiring talks. The time went by smoothly as we interacted with alumna, mentors as well as fellow students about interests and projects. I am excited for this program to start !
