ADMISSIONS COMMITTEE
One of the most important and rewarding contributions alumnae can make to Smith is to get involved in the recruiting effort. If you are interested in working with other admissions volunteers to interview prospective students, attend events, or help with Smith book awards, please contact Annette Pollert Õ03 at annette.pollert@gmail.com. Please include your name, telephone, e-mail, and your location preference (Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, or Staten Island). We look forward to hearing from you!
HOUSING COMMITTEE
The Housing Committee seeks volunteers who can house a student or alumna for one or two nights while they visit New York for interviews, apartment hunting, etc. Also, the committee has put together a brief guide on moving to New York for interns, new graduates, and relocating alums. If you have questions about housing a student/alum, or would like to volunteer, please contact Dara Weinerman Steinberg '00 at darasteinberg@gmail.com.
