Parent & Family Updates

On behalf of Goucher College, I want to express our gratitude for your support and encouragement of your student during their time at Goucher. As the academic year comes to a close, we look forward to a welcome summer break for our first-year, sophomore, and junior students and the opportunity to celebrate the achievements of our graduates at this year's Commencement ceremony.

Students have several options for their housing, including special interest houses, apartments, traditional single & double rooms, and suites.

Wherever your students may be in their academic journey, spring is the season of activation and transition. This point in the semester may pose a challenging but exciting time for students—some are energized by the warmth, sunlight, and renewal of the season. Some are facing “eager-xiety” over upcoming graduation. And some may find themselves fatigued, unsure, and struggling from the demands of college life and whatever changes they face after the conclusion of the semester.

I thought it was important to share the email we sent to our Goucher community yesterday in response to the tragedy at Michigan State University.

As we prepare to welcome our students back to campus, I would love to introduce the work of the Center for Race, Equity, and Identity. The Center for Race, Equity, and Identity (also known as CREI) seeks to foster an environment in which marginalized community members feel affirmed and comfortable exploring and expressing their identities.
