Wellesley College — Reunion 2014
Reunion weekend is sponsored by the Wellesley College Alumnae
Association, but it represents a combined and concerted effort on the part of
the Alumnae Association and the College. We would like to thank everyone
involved in making Reunion possible—we simply could not host this event
without them. Our profound gratitude goes to the faculty and staff who have
generously given their time to enrich the Reunion program. In addition, the
Alumnae Association is indebted to the hundreds of alumnae volunteers who
deliver programs and activities with generous contributions of their time,
talent, leadership, and expertise every year.

WELCOME TO REUNION!
June 2014
Dear Alumna:
Welcome to Reunion! It’s wonderful to have the campus buzzing with so many
alumnae and friends this weekend.
One of the best parts of my job as president is having the opportunity to meet and
engage with alumnae—either on the road or here on campus. I am delighted to have a
chance to spend time with you.
I hope you’ll agree that the campus is looking as lovely as ever. I encourage you to take
some time this weekend to rediscover your favorite haunts and to explore some new
ones.
Over the last seven years, I have seen time and again how exceptionally loyal Wellesley
alumnae are to their alma mater. This weekend is a wonderful tribute to that
dedication. It is especially meaningful to me, and to our students and faculty, that our
alumnae continue to be an important presence at Wellesley.
Throughout the weekend, I hope you will share many stories with me about your time
as a student and also your experiences since graduating. I always enjoy learning about
the ways in which the College has—and has not—changed over the years. I look
forward to sharing with you my thoughts and reflections on the Wellesley of today,
and giving you a glimpse into the future of your beloved alma mater.
I hope you enjoy your time on campus this weekend. Welcome home! It is a pleasure
to have you back.
Sincerely,
June 2014
Dear Alumna:
On behalf of the Alumnae Association, I am thrilled to welcome you back to campus!
The Alumnae Association’s mission — to connect alumnae to the College and to
each other — is fully realized at Reunion. Whether this Reunion is your first or you
are celebrating the 80 years since you graduated, we hope you reconnect with all that
is Wellesley. We have planned a wide range of programs for you: from stimulating
faculty lectures to in-depth tours; from yoga to a walk (or run!) around the lake;
from Stepsinging to a variety of open houses. Whether you participate in many of
these programs or simply enjoy the beauty of our campus and deepen long-standing
friendships, we hope you enjoy your Reunion.
When you arrive on campus, you’ll notice a few changes. Four years ago, we opened
the doors of the newly renovated and LEED-certified Diana Chapman Walsh
Alumnae Hall. On the east side of campus, the Whitin Observatory has been
renovated and is sharing the expanded space with the Geosciences Department. We
hope you have time to visit both of these places. In addition, we hope you will notice
an expansion of our green initiatives (such as the water bottles all attendees receive) as
we strive to reduce the carbon footprint of Reunion. Please join us in these efforts.
Reunion would not be possible without the hard work, commitment, and enthusiasm
of your class volunteers. The Alumnae Association Board of Directors and I extend
our deepest thanks to all these dedicated individuals. I ask that you please thank them
as well for their dedication to bringing you and your classmates together for this
special weekend.
We look forward to cheering with you on Sunday morning at our favorite and
most inspirational Reunion event — Alumnae Parade! Please plan on joining us
following the parade at the Association’s annual meeting, where we will celebrate class
milestones and noted alumnae and hear from President Kim Bottomly.
It’s going to be a wonderful weekend. We’re glad you’re here. Welcome back!
H. Kim Bottomly
Sincerely,
Karen E. Williamson ’69, President

FACULTY LECTURE: Viewing the Supreme Court’s Marriage
Case Through the Lens of Political Science
I will explain the holding in U.S. v. Windsor, which struck down
the Defense of Marriage Act. However, unlike lawyers, I will
not use a single precedent or law to explain the outcome in
Windsor. Instead, I rely on political science theories that hold:
Justices vote based on their personal policy preferences.
Nancy Scherer, Associate Professor of Political Science
Pendleton East 239

Alumnae Association
FACULTY LECTURE: A Fascination with Bodies: Literature and Medicine
This talk is based on courses I have taught for many years, courses focused on
the intersection of literature and medicine. Representation of doctors and patients,
the impact of illness on family structure, childbirth and abortion, depression in its
many demonstrations, PTSD and AIDS, and more. Attention to works of fiction and
autobiography has been enriched by selected representations in the visual arts.
Michèle Respaut, Professor of French, Emerita
Pendleton West 117
FACULTY LECTURE: Law and the Family in Classical Athens
Ancient Athenian family law differed radically from modern American law, just as
Athenian families differed from families of today. For instance, women could not
own property, nor could men make wills, which Athenians thought would undercut
the strength of the family.
Ray Starr, Theodora Stone Sutton Professor of Classics
Pendleton West 212
FACULTY LECTURE: Biomaterials: Making the Bionic Woman
Drawing on diverse fields, ranging from materials science and engineering to
medicine, biomaterials have become vital to our health. Together, we will define
biomaterials, discuss their connections to basic sciences, and delve into examples
of new types of biomaterials. These examples, which are being developed
by researchers across the country and on the Wellesley campus, will include
biomaterials for spinal cord repair and improved biocompatibility of medical
implants.
Nolan Flynn, Associate Professor of Chemistry
Science Center 277
FACULTY LECTURE: A Chemist’s Approach to the Study of Diabetes
The design of new drugs is the focus of much medicinal chemistry. Because a
drug must be both highly specific and highly potent, a chemist must understand
both the biological system being studied and the molecules being used as drugs.
I will talk about our use of small molecules as tools to understand the biological
mechanisms by which blood sugar is controlled by the pancreas.
David Haines, Associate Professor of Chemistry
Science Center 278
FACULTY LECTURE: From Decision Making to Deal Making: How Hormones
Influence our Brains and Behavior
This talk will explore how the steroid hormones, including estrogens, progestins
and androgens, act in the brain to influence behavior and decision making. We
will briefly discuss work from the Tetel lab on how steroid hormones act in the
Wellesley College — Reunion 2014

brain to influence brain development and behavior. We will then discuss some
studies from other labs on the emerging and exciting field of neuroeconomics—the
neuroscience of decision making.
Marc Tetel, Class of 1966 Associate Professor of Neuroscience
Science Center 377
FACULTY LECTURE: Mixed-Gender Imagery in Medieval Saints Lives
Employing medieval hagiographic texts and images that explore traditional
markers of the feminine and masculine, the talk will explore how both cultural
tensions regarding gender identity and eroticism are negotiated in the saintly
biography (oftentimes apocryphal). Legends focusing on transvestism, miraculous
growth of beards on women, and an emphasis on body and head hair as markers
of sanctity, suggest an erotic vein—at the same time that the rationale for these
narratives is to preclude this possibility. The main subject will be prefaced by a
short overview of historic and contemporary procedures for recognition of saints
by official bodies of the Catholic Church. The presentation is illustrated by a wealth
of noteworthy images.
Carlos Vega, Professor of Spanish
Jewett Arts Center 372
FACULTY LECTURE: Funk and Feminism: An Art Historical Perspective
Betty Davis, a self-assured, sexually charged, musically creative singer-songwriter
who performed during the 1970s, possessed what I call a “feminist funk power,” a
performative funk that forces the viewer to reinvent one’s very conception of black
female agency in light of their original physical expression of art forms. Through
the genre of funk, or an interpretation of funk, how might conceptual and visual
artists, like Adrian Piper and Renée Stout, resist and transcend what Piper has
called “The Triple Negation of the Colored Woman Artist”?
Nikki A. Greene, Assistant Professor of Art
Jewett Arts Center 450
FACULTY LECTURE: Hostesses, Circumnavigators, Watercolorists, and Exotic
Dancers: How Nineteenth-Century Women’s Culture Made John Singer Sargent
Earlier generations of art historians often noticed how complex and remarkable
John Singer Sargent’s portraits of women tend to be. But are these “Sargent’s
women,” or do the women in the portraits actually manifest the momentous
changes in women’s roles during Sargent’s lifetime? This talk explores Sargent’s
rich depictions of women and the many ways in which his work actually owes a
great debt to nineteenth-century women’s culture.

I would like to present my work as an artist using the principles of simulation and
the cannibalization of cultural influences.
Daniela Rivera, Assistant Professor of Art
Pendleton West 212
FACULTY LECTURE: What the Heck is a MOOC and Why is Wellesley Doing
This?
Please join us to hear Professor Adam van Arsdale, who taught Wellesley’s first
Massive Open Online Course (MOOC). He will discuss his experiences teaching
in this new medium and compare and contrast it with a face-to-face class. Ravi will
discuss why Wellesley is interested in this new medium of instruction and some of
the exciting new possibilities that this opens up for connecting with the alumnae.

will show numerous examples of what I feel are useful visual aids to the learning
process.
Flick Coleman, Professor of Chemistry, Emeritus

THEATRE DEPARTMENT OPEN HOUSE
Alumnae Hall, Ruth Nagel Jones Theatre
FACULTY LECTURE: “A Uranium Atom Walks Into A Bar”: Nuclear Challenges
in the 21st Century
Since the discovery of nuclear fission in the 1930s, the potential of nuclear energy
both for war and for peace has presented an ongoing challenge to humanity.
How do we deal with this challenge in our post-Fukushima world, in which daily
newspaper accounts of the need for sources of energy other than fossil fuels as
well as ongoing developments in Iran and North Korea highlight the importance of
understanding the “positive and negative” potential of the atomic nucleus?
Nancy Harrison Kolodny ’64, Cohen/Heller Professor of Chemistry, Emerita
Science Center 396
FACULTY LECTURE: Women in the Labyrinth of Leadership
Why are there so few women leaders? How do men’s and women’s personalities,
family roles, gender stereotypes, and organizational challenges affect women
leaders and what can be done to increase the advancement of women?
Linda Carli, Senior Lecturer of Psychology
Jewett Arts Center 450
FACULTY LECTURE: Like a Great Roman Ruin: The College Hall Fire and Anne
Whitney at 100
Join us for an overview of the 1914 College Hall fire exhibition currently on display
in the Davis Museum. This exhibition includes objects from the Davis, Archives,
and Special Collections—as well as gifts and loans from alumnae worldwide—
ranging from letters written by students and faculty to tableware used in the
College Hall dining room, from marble busts and a painted mirror saved from the
Browning Room to the Tree Day Spade and more. Together these objects examine
art and life in College Hall from the founding of the College in 1870, to the great
fire that destroyed the building and its contents in 1914, to the fundraising and
rebuilding efforts that followed.

FACULTY LECTURE: Media Influences on Social Outcomes: The Impact of
MTV’s 16 and Pregnant on Teen Childbearing
This presentation will address the impact of the widely viewed MTV reality TV
show, 16 and Pregnant, on teen-bearing outcomes. When the show aired, it led to
more searches and tweets regarding birth control and abortion, ultimately leading
to a 5.7 percent reduction in teen births in the 18 months following its introduction.
This accounts for around one-third of the overall decline in teen births in the United
States during that period.

and focus to provide high-quality research in partnership with social change
organizations and funders, while also providing data for policymakers, advocates,
and the media. Layli Maparyan and WCW scholars will discuss how WCW is
working to advance development and other social change initiatives across the
globe through its research, theory, and action programs.

FACULTY LECTURE: Dear Home: The Launch of a Crowd-Sourced
Transcription Project for Wellesley
The poet and sculptor Anne Whitney (1821-1915) was an important member of the
artistic, literary, and political circles in her native Massachusetts and further afield.
Wellesley’s Archives house approximately four thousand largely unpublished
letters to and from Whitney over the course of her long life, all of which contain
richly detailed and sometimes astonishing information about nineteenth-century
art and life. But these handwritten letters are fragile, and few people have ready
access to them. With this in mind, we are launching a crowd-sourced transcription
website for the Wellesley community, so that alumnae can take part in transcribing
these remarkable letters online. Whitney is an especially appropriate topic for
Wellesley; her family knew the Durants and she herself knew Alice Freeman and
George Herbert Palmer, as well as many Wellesley professors and benefactors;
she taught here for a semester and her statue of the English author and reformer
Harriet Martineau was a focal point of College Hall before it was destroyed in the
1914 fire. Thanks to Friends of the Library funds, we have digitized hundreds of
her letters, from correspondents ranging from her family and Wellesley friends to
author Louisa May Alcott, artist Harriet Hosmer, suffragist Caroline Healey Dall, and
abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison, among others. Join us to learn about Whitney’s
life and sign up to read and transcribe letters as part of this exciting project!

Insights on the “Read My Pins” exhibit
Housed at the Davis Museum, the exhibition features more than 200 pins, many
of which the incomparable Secretary Albright donned to communicate a message
or a mood during her diplomatic tenure. Sparkling with Albright’s wit and brio, the

THEATRE PRODUCTION
Wellesley Summer Theatre Company presents HAY FEVER, directed by Marta
Rainer ’98. Chaos ensues when the eccentric Bliss family invite a motley
assortment of weekend guests to their fashionable summer home. The guests
end up fleeing, unnoticed by the Bliss family, who are too caught up in their own
dramas to pay them much attention. A comedy of manners in the grand tradition!
Reservations at 781.283.2000 are absolutely needed. Ticket prices are $10.00 for
alumnae and their guests, $5.00 for those over 65.

FACULTY LECTURE: U.S.-China Relations: Possible Futures
This lecture presents an overview of U.S.-China relations in the 21st century. It
explains possible flash points and areas of potential cooperation between the two
great powers.
Stacie Goddard, Jane Bishop ’51 Associate Professor of Political Science
Pendleton East 239
FACULTY LECTURE: Making Image Matter: Reconsidering Civil Rights Work in
the Post-World War II United States
What happens when we consider how non-activists contributed to the civil rights
struggle? The lecture dramatizes this question by examining the image-making
activities of the two black entrepreneurs—publisher John H. Johnson and public
relations guru Moss H. Kendrix.
Brenna W. Greer, Assistant Professor of History
Science Center 278
FACULTY LECTURE: Mixed-Gender Imagery in Medieval Saints Lives
Employing medieval hagiographic texts and images that explore traditional
markers of the feminine and masculine, the talk will explore how both cultural
tensions regarding gender identity and eroticism are negotiated in the saintly
biography (oftentimes apocryphal). Legends focusing on transvestism, miraculous
growth of beards on women, and an emphasis on body and head hair as markers
of sanctity, suggest an erotic vein—at the same time that the rationale for these
narratives is to preclude this possibility. The main subject will be prefaced by a
short overview of historic and contemporary procedures for recognition of saints
by official bodies of the Catholic Church. The presentation is illustrated by a wealth
of noteworthy images.

FACULTY LECTURE: Biomaterials: Making the Bionic Woman
Drawing on diverse fields, ranging from materials science and engineering to
medicine, biomaterials have become vital to our health. Together, we will define
biomaterials, discuss their connections to basic sciences, and delve into examples
of new types of biomaterials. These examples, which are being developed
by researchers across the country and on the Wellesley campus, will include
biomaterials for spinal cord repair and improved biocompatibility of medical
implants.

FACULTY LECTURE: Like a Great Roman Ruin: The College Hall Fire and Anne
Whitney at 100
Join us for an overview of 1914 College Hall fire exhibition currently on display in
the Davis Museum. This exhibition includes objects from the Davis, Archives, and
Special Collections--as well as gifts and loans from alumnae worldwide--ranging
from letters written by students and faculty to tableware used in the College Hall
dining room, from marble busts and a painted mirror saved from the Browning
Room to the Tree Day Spade and more. Together these objects examine art and
life in College Hall from the founding of the College in 1870, to the great fire that
destroyed the building and its contents in 1914, to the fundraising and rebuilding
efforts that followed.

2013–2014 ALUMNAE ASSOCIATION
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
OFFICERS
MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of the Wellesley College Alumnae Association is to further the interests
of Wellesley College and its alumnae by connecting alumnae to the College and
to each other, in support of the College’s institutional priorities. The Association
serves as a lifelong resource to alumnae and encourages alumnae to contribute to
the continued excellence of the College.
THE ASSOCIATION’S RELATIONSHIP
TO THE COLLEGE
The Association is an independent, self-governing organization created by the
alumnae of Wellesley College in 1880. It maintains substantial representation on
the board of trustees of the College, with four alumnae trustees, a young alumnae
trustee and the president of the Association, who serves ex officio and with vote.
On administrative and programming fronts, Association volunteers and staff
work closely with the Office of Admission, Center for Work and Service, Office for
Resources, President’s Office and other College offices.
In 1952, during the 75th Anniversary Fund campaign, the Alumnae Association
board and the board of trustees began to rethink the fundraising role of the
Association. The decision was made to change the Association’s mission,
and since then, all fundraising for the College has come through the Office for
Resources. The Alumnae Association and the Office for Resources continue to
work closely and have a strong partnership as we serve these distinct roles.

A Day to Make a Difference: Hundreds of alumnae around the world took part in
community-service projects through their clubs and as individuals for our annual
A Day to Make a Difference which we host in partnership with the Center for Work
and Service (CWS). This tradition of rededication to our college motto has struck a
deep chord with alumnae around the globe.
Admissions: Admission efforts are greatly supported by our alumnae clubs and
individual volunteers. This past year, they conducted more than 850 interviews,
attended college fairs, and held receptions for admitted students and summer
send offs for incoming first years.
The Wellesley College Book Award Program honors exceptional young women
who have been top scholars in their high school class and have also distinguished
themselves through their extracurricular activities and in their community. The
award gives students a chance to learn more about Wellesley, especially if they are
not already familiar with the college. This spring, 1,250 books were awarded and
distributed by 73 of our U.S. alumnae clubs and 8 international contacts.
Alumnae Achievement Awards: The 2014 Alumnae Achievement Awards were
presented to C. Tracy Orleans ’70, behavioral scientist, public health advocate; and
Eva Sommaripa ’63, organic farmer, champion of sustainable living, in a ceremony
held in Diana Chapman Walsh Alumnae Hall before an audience of alumnae,
students, staff, faculty, and friends
Alumnae Leadership Council (ALC): ALC annually hosts class, club, shared
interest group (SIG), and Reunion volunteers for training and inspiration. In
addition, SIGs give alumnae the opportunity to connect with each other and the
College based on a common activity, purpose, background, or interest. Councilors
at ALC 2013 learned the specifics of their volunteer roles and heard firsthand about
current College programs, priorities and accomplishments from both students and
the College’s senior management.
Faculty Speaker Program: This year, the Alumnae Association sponsored over
65 faculty speaker programs with our clubs, including thirteen international
connections, enhancing our alumnae’s lifelong intellectual connection to the
College and their understanding of life at Wellesley today.
68
Alumnae Association
Wellesley College — Reunion 2014 69
Memories Night: A new tradition, Memories Night is a panel discussion with
alumnae from across the decades to discuss their time at Wellesley with current
students. Students relish hearing how Wellesley has changed (or not!) over the
past 60 years.
Online Services: Check out our website today at www.wellesley.edu/Alumnae.
Online services provided by the Alumnae Association include an online directory,
Discussions, Class E-Notes, and more. These services offer alumnae a variety
of ways in which to share and connect with other alumnae virtually. In addition
to the community features, the Association website also offers opportunities for
lifelong learning, lets you browse the profiles of the Alumnae Achievement Award
recipients, connects you to the online version of Wellesley magazine, serves as
a resource to thousands of alumnae volunteers, connects alumnae to their class
and local club sites and provides information about benefits and services for all
alumnae.

Reunion: For Reunion 2014, we are excited to offer our wonderful faculty lectures
and tours of campus sites. Nearly 3,000 alumnae and friends are returning to
Wellesley to reminisce and be intellectually refreshed.
Stepsinging: Twice a year students are given songbooks and assemble by
classes to try to out-sing and out-cheer the other classes. Dressed in their
respective class colors—red, yellow, purple, and green—students rally behind the
elected songmistresses for each class.
Thanksgiving Match: The Alumnae Association, in partnership with Slater
International, connects Wellesley students with members of the Wellesley
community for Thanksgiving. The program gives students whose own families
are far away a chance to get off campus, and enjoy a family setting and a homecooked meal.
Wellesley magazine: Our award-winning alumnae magazine continues to provide
an exceptional resource to alumnae around the world as it connects us with one
another and with activities at the College. It is published quarterly and is also
available online at http://www.wellesley.edu/alumnae/wellesleymagazine/online.

TO ALMA MATER
Lyrics by: Anne Barrett Hughes, Class of 1886
Arranged by:
Flora Smeallie Ward,
Class of 1886
from the German air The Mountain Maiden
To Alma Mater, Wellesley’s daughters,
All together join and sing,
Thro’ all her wealth of wood and waters,
Let your happy voices ring
In ev’ry changing mood we love her,
Love her tow’rs and woods and lake,
Oh, changeful sky, bend blue above her!
Wake, ye birds, your chorus wake!
We’ll sing her praises now and ever,
Blessed fount of truth and love,
Our heart’s devotion, may it never
Faithless or unworthy prove
We’ll give our lives and hopes to serve her,
Humblest, highest, noblest all,
A stainless name we will preserve her,
Answer to her ev’ry call
