In today’s world of “fake news,” “post-truths,” and “alternative facts,” Haverford’s Initiative in Ethical Engagement and Leadership (IEEL) may be more important than ever. So far IEEL has hosted a symposium on scientific ethics, created the Ethical Leadership Summer Institute (ELSI) led by visiting professor Neal Grabell ’77, and funded the “Civic Engagement and Social Responsibility” working group on campus.
Professor Kaye Edwards and the inaugural group of IEEL students (clockwise from top left) Freda Coren '17, George O'Hara '18, Smitha Pallaki BMC '17, Nathan Sokolic '19, Allison Hacker '17, and Amanda Grolig '19 gave presentations on the off-campus groups they volunteer with as part of their course requirements for the new Community Engagement and Social Responsibility seminar.

Open Campus Day gave admitted students a chance to interact with their possible future professors, fellow classmates, and other Fords. The day’s program included campus tours, fairs highlighting student activities and academic disciplines, student agency, and more.

Fords enjoy myriad traditional events such as the Collection speaker series; pinwheel day; the annual weekend throwdown at the end of the year called Haverfest; and, most importantly, Fall and Spring Plenary.
As a core institutional principle, sustainability animates Haverford's broad mission of stewarding its financial, ethical, and curricular endowments in the interest of educating principled global citizens while safeguarding intergenerational equity as a perpetual institution.
