欧美性爱

Over the past four years, the Class of 2025 has brought energy, creativity, and a deep sense of purpose to Skidmore. They鈥檝e pursued bold ideas, embraced Skidmore's spirit of Creative Thought Matters, and supported one another in ways big and small. They鈥檝e built community, forged unexpected connections, and challenged themselves 鈥� and their communities 欧美性爱� to grow. 

When they arrived on campus in fall 2021, the long shadow of the COVID-19 pandemic still hung in the air. Many had missed out on traditional milestones and entered college with questions about what college life might even look like. But they quickly found their footing 鈥� in classrooms, residence halls, studios, and labs 欧美性爱� and redefined what it meant to come together as a community. 

鈥淏e fearless and bold as you embark on a great liberal arts education and all that entails,鈥� President Marc C. Conner said as he welcomed the students, still wearing masks, at New Student Convocation in fall 2021. 鈥淭ake care of yourselves and of each other, treating everyone with kindness, respect, and honesty. Ask yourself each and every day: What opportunities do I have today and how can I contribute to the good of our entire community?鈥�

And that鈥檚 just what they鈥檝e done.  

During their four years at Skidmore, they鈥檝e drawn on their liberal arts education to grapple with momentous changes in this country and the world, including Russia鈥檚 invasion of Ukraine; terrorism, war, and atrocities in the Middle East; the advent of artificial intelligence; and the 2024 U.S. presidential election. 

As national and global conversations evolved, they stepped forward with courage and conviction. They showed what it means to be civically engaged 鈥� active participants in advocating for change while continuing to be respectful toward others and mindful of differing views. Their Skidmore experience was not defined by a single moment but by a series of them 鈥� and their willingness to meet those moments with thoughtfulness and heart.  

The class also witnessed a time of transformation on campus. In their first semester, they saw the Inauguration of President Marc Conner and the opening of Wyckoff Center 鈥� a space designed to encourage cross-cultural understanding and host challenging conversations. The Billie Tisch Center for Integrated Sciences, completed last year, has opened new opportunities for scientific collaboration and discovery. The McCaffery-Wagman Tennis and Wellness Center, finished in January, has become a space for recreation, well-being, and connection.  

Now, as they prepare for the next stage as Skidmore alumni, the Class of 2025 carries forward the momentum they helped create 鈥� as scholars, artists, innovators, and changemakers ready for whatever comes next.
