New partnerships include:
— Harvard Graduate School of Education (Harvard Graduate School of Education)
— Duke University's Fuqua School of Business (Duke's Fuqua School of Business)
—Vanderbilt Owen Graduate School of Management (Vanderbilt University Owen Graduate School of Management)

What makes these pathways different?

— Built-in community and support: Selected students will become part of program-specific cohorts to ensure they move through the experience together
— Ongoing connection and mentorship: Cohorts will have opportunities to engage with partner institutions throughout all four years.

Reunions ’26 was an unforgettable weekend filled with countless beautiful moments, big and small and everywhere in between. A hug from an old friend. A shared laugh at the dinner table. An evening spent dancing under string lights and fireworks. Cherished traditions and celebrations. Reunion Weekend always reminds us of the strength of our Hamily ties and encourages us to continue nurturing our one-of-a-kind community. 💙💚

This year, we celebrate 10 faculty members whose combined 300 years of teaching will leave a lasting mark on the Hamilton community. Our retirees are Mark Bailey (computer science), Erol Balkan (economics), Sally Cockburn (mathematics), Ella Gant (art), Patty Kloidt (physical education), Cheryl Morgan (French), Quincy Newell (religious studies), Onno Oerlemans (literature), Margie Thickstun (literature), and Bruce Walczyk (dance).

To honor their tenure, we asked each to reflect on a single moment — inside or outside the classroom — that captures what teaching has meant to them. Their answers offer a glimpse into the relationships, discoveries, and quiet transformations that define a life in education.

Over the course of a few evenings in New York City, filmmakers, alumni, and students gathered together for several sold-out screenings and provocative conversations honoring the work and influence of Professor of Cinema and Media Studies Scott MacDonald.

To commemorate the completion of his “Avant-Doc Trilogy,” the series was programmed by MacDonald alongside three of his former students — Annie Berman ’18, Ava Witonsky ’21, and Isha Parkhi ’21 — all of whom now work in film.

Click the link in our comments to see the lasting creative and professional connections that he has fostered over decades of teaching.
