Board of Trustees Meeting

Tags Board Meeting Updates

Dear Members of the Hamilton Community,

I write to report on the quarterly meeting of the Board of Trustees and to express gratitude to all who helped make Fallcoming and Family Weekend such a success. More than 1,600 alumni, parents, and trustees were in Clinton for the weekend. I especially want to thank our colleagues in Advancement and Facilities Management who planned and executed dozens of events, and those members of the faculty who welcomed visitors into their classes and prepared our students for presentations and performances.

Among the highlights of the weekend were the remarks by Bennett Morrison ’20 on behalf of student scholarship recipients at the dinner Friday evening, and the presentation of the Jeff Little ’71 Volunteer of the Year Award to Clinton native Andy Burns ’78. Andy was instrumental in the centennial celebration of Hamilton’s hockey program and the effort that resulted in Clinton being named Kraft Hockeyville in 2018.

In addition to focusing on the normal business of the College, the Board of Trustees had lunch with groups of students across campus and met with faculty department chairs. They also heard from Student Assembly President Amanda Kim ’21 and Vice President Jiin Jeong ’21 about issues of concern to students, including mental and physical health, the climate crisis, and transparency and communication on campus. The board also welcomed alumni trustees Mark Fedorcik ’95, John Hadity ’83, and Sharon Walker ’90, and charter trustees Carol Travis Friscia K’77, Monty Pooley ’84, P’16,’19, Woody Marshall ’90, P’23 and Srilata Zaheer.

The next board meeting will take place December 6 in New York City in conjunction with the 1812 Leadership Circle Weekend.

All best,

David
