And that’s a wrap on our International Law & Governance Spring-Into-Summer course takeover! We would like to extend a special thank you to the alumni & friends who spent time with our students sharing wisdom from their lived experiences: Berenike Ullman (thank you to ASPEC for this connection!), Valerie Jaquier ‘95, Gabe Mazza ’68, and Blaise Bess ‘06! It was also a pleasure to visit with ‘17, Camille Padieu ‘29 and family, Lucy Fitzgerald ’18 (not pictured), and Ashley Machen ’00 (not pictured) while in their backyards. The Eckerd world is small, but our community is strong! 🐚

Join us in welcoming the Class of 2026 to the Eckerd Alumni family! 🩵🐚🎓

While Commencement marks the end of one chapter, it is also the beginning of a lifelong connection to Eckerd College and to one another. The curiosity and spirit that make this community so special will continue to live on through each of you wherever life takes you next.

We are endlessly inspired by the compassion, creativity and excellence of Eckerd students, and we could not be more proud to call you alumni.

Congratulations, Tritons! 🔱🍾

Former Executive Director of The Dalí Museum, T. Marshall Rousseau served as an Eckerd College instructor for 17 years, influencing two generations of curators, artists and marketers.

Those walking through the Arthur Skinner ’72 Gallery at Eckerd College got a glimpse into the personal collection of the master curator and educator.

Hosted by Rousseau’s former student, Simone DeLoach ’08, M.B.A., the exhibition celebrated the life and legacy of Rousseau—reflecting on the lasting impact he had as an instructor and mentor.
