model of developing the whole person through one-on-one relationships with alumnae who provide encouragement and support of students’ personal and professional goals throughout their time as students on the Heights. These mentor relationships can focus on any matters important to each individual student (student life, academic matters, career, etc.) Mentors will be provided with
resources to help offer guidance for students.

The Present and the Future in the Present: Religion, Values, and Climate Change
With Joel Robbins, Ph.D.
Monday, September 14, 2026, 11:30 a.m. - 12:45 p.m || Campion Hall, Room 139 and Online via Zoom
Many people have come to the conclusion that simply sharing the scientific data on global warming with the public has not been enough to motivate the kind of consistent action that would be needed to successfully address the threat it presents. In this lecture, Dr. Robbins considers whether religion might have some unique role to play in bringing such action about.
