of Students Office. And, we’re hearing more and that parents are getting involved because of their students’ positive experiences on campus and as graduates. Alumni and Parent Relations’ major focus this year was
to provide more and better opportunities for alumni, parents and other key constituents to stay connected to and reconnect with the College. In partnership with the Alumni Association Board of Governors, events were held on campus and across the country that have resulted in a significant participation increase—3,631 attendees this year compared to 2,617 in the previous year. In addition, Alumni Weekend 2011 was HMC’s largest and most successful ever with 740 total guests, including 467 alumni (a 63 percent increase over the previous year). Among the 10 reunion classes, those volunteering to serve on planning committees increased from just 17 the year prior to more than 85. In addition, a strong volunteer effort by members of The Founding Class of 1961 resulted in 33 of their 41 living members returning to campus to celebrate their 50th reunion. Other campus events included the first gathering of the HMC Legacy Society, which recognizes those who have made a bequest or other planned gift to the College, and HMC’s first “past trustee” event in September 2010, which invited former trustees to campus for an evening of recognition by faculty, alumni and students. Once again, strong attendance was seen at HMC’s two annual public lecture series: The Dr. Bruce J. Nelson ’74 Distinguished Speaker Series and The Walter and Leonore Annenberg Visiting Professors in Leadership and Management Series. We were especially grateful to have partnered with Pomona College to bring Microsoft’s Bill Gates to Claremont for a special public appearance, including a tour of HMC’s campus, interaction with our faculty and students, and a public talk (held in Bridges Auditorium) moderated by President Klawe and concluding with a lively Q&A session involving students from all The Claremont Colleges. The Communications group worked this year to bring inspiring stories about Harvey Mudd College to a wider audience and contributed significantly to our overall engagement efforts. From the hands-on, interdisciplinary nature of the new E11 autonomous vehicles lab to an exciting summer research project in gene therapy, Communications shared compelling stories about the exciting innovations in teaching and learning going on everyday at HMC. They spread the word via the HMC Bulletin and other print publications, monthly e-newsletters, local and national news media, and through the College’s growing social media channels like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. HMC’s prominence in national rankings and, increasingly, its innovations, such as the computer science department’s successful efforts to attract female majors, are garnering national media attention. As you can see, a lot is happening at HMC, and this is just a small sampling. As we enter this new year, we do so with momentum provided by the excellent work referenced here; the unwavering dedication of our trustees; the highly valued collaboration with alumni leaders
serving on the Alumni Association Board of Governors; the value-driven partnerships
with industry leaders through career
services, research and
Clinic; the tireless dedication of our faculty and staff; and, the energy and leadership of our students and their parents. It is this remarkable community that attracted me to Harvey Mudd College and it is the same community with whom I look forward to working throughout this year and for many years to come. Together, we will ensure that the College we inherited will be an even better institution for those who follow.
