Dear Members of the Hamilton community:
The Hamilton Board of Trustees met on Friday, Dec. 2, in New York City in conjunction with the 19th Annual 1812 Leadership Circle Weekend. More than 400 alumni, parents and friends participated in the weekend’s events. I am especially grateful to the members of the faculty and staff who led seminars and related programs during the weekend, including Phil Klinkner, Andrea Townsend, Tracy Adler and Sharon Rivera, who was assisted by James Bryan ’16 and Hunter Sobczak ’17. We also enjoyed the talents of the College Hill Singers, under the direction of Rob Kolb.
At the board meeting, trustees discussed reports on fundraising and strategic planning. We also engaged in an extended conversation about two important topics affecting higher education: sexual misconduct and possible campus responses to potential changes in federal immigration law and practice. Both of these issues have been discussed at great length on campus, and I will be sending further information on both shortly.
In the meantime, I wish you a successful and productive final week of the semester. The next board meeting will take place March 4 in Clinton.
All best,
David
