A new year of creative possibility
“There’s nothing like the beginning of a new academic year.”
President Marc Conner welcomes everyone in our Skidmore community — students, staff,
faculty, parents, and families — to another great year on campus.
As always, students can look forward to being inspired and challenged by exciting
opportunities and brilliant faculty and staff, supported and encouraged by a warm
and caring community, and centered and energized by beautiful surroundings. New this
year, a number of learning spaces and residence halls have been upgraded, the state-of-the-art
research facilities in the new Billie Tisch Center for Integrated Sciences are now
fully complete, and the new McCaffery-Wagman Tennis and Wellness Center will soon
open, centralizing and prioritizing holistic health and wellness on campus.
Possibilities abound and Creative Thought Matters … welcome to the fall semester!
