President Paula Johnson had a very busy schedule this year, traveling to Wellesley clubs around the country to meet alumnae and to celebrate, strengthen, and advance the Wellesley Effect. Events have taken places in Naples, Fla., San Francisco, Los Angeles, Houston, Chicago, and Washington, D.C., and have featured alumnae panels and remarks from the president.

At the events, Johnson spoke about Wellesley’s commitment to academic excellence, making sure that all Wellesley students have an equal opportunity to flourish, and supporting its alumnae throughout their lives.

“Wellesley stands for the solution to the world’s most urgent problems, and as president, I pledge to do all I can in service to this goal—to assure that every Wellesley woman has the chance to reach her full potential,” Johnson said at the event in Los Angeles.
