Alumni

Haverfordians are lifelong learners. The College's intellectually stimulating travel excursions for alumni are a popular way to explore the world alongside local guides, guest lecturers, and Haverford faculty experts. 

During the summer, 17 alumni and parents, along with 11 friends and family members, traveled to the Arctic Circle with Associate Professor of Chemistry and Environmental Studies Helen White to see the pristine fjords, glimmering glaciers, and the dramatic effects of climate change on the world's most majestic landscapes.

The interdisciplinary faculty behind the “Dark Reactions Project” and eight of their students co-authored an article identifying previously unacknowledged human biases in chemical reaction data that impedes exploratory inorganic synthesis.
