Join us for a special Founders Porch featuring Chair of the Board of Managers Michael Kim ‘85, ‘P17, member of the Board of Managers, Kari Nadeau ‘88, and President Wendy Raymond. A cornerstone of a Haverford education includes actively engaging with critical ethical questions in the classroom and lab, and these questions extend into students’ professional lives after college as well. Hear about how the college is investing in the teaching and fostering of ethical inquiry as foundational to the undergraduate experience at Haverford.
