The 2022-2024 Vassar College Accessibility Plan contains a blueprint for addressing barriers to access encountered by those who live and work on the campus as well as outside visitors.
During a long, cold Winter Break in the midst of the pandemic, more than 50 Vassar students, faculty, and administrators gathered on Zoom to take part in the first ever Grand Challenges Winter Creative Project. Participants learned to crochet and used those skills to build a massive crocheted “coral reef” to demonstrate the need to address climate change.
More than 30 Poughkeepsie High School students took part in Exploring College and Getting Ready for High School, two programs run by the Vassar College Urban Education Initiative to help prepare community youth for their next academic challenges.
During the second half of the spring semester, Vassar’s Engaged Pluralism Initiative (EPI) launched three projects that are making life a little brighter for students and staff on campus.
