President Anne F. Harris and her husband, Professor of Art History Michael Mackenzie, have created the Emmett and Pierrette Harris Endowed Scholarship, which honors Harris’ parents and benefits under-resourced students at Grinnell College.

Grinnell alumnus and attorney Joseph Welch 1914 challenged Senator Joseph McCarthy in a 1954 congressional hearing. In the process, he helped bring about the end of McCarthyism.

Sarah Toay ’23 has been awarded a C$10,000 McCall MacBain Regional Award for graduate study at any public university in Canada. The scholarship recognizes students who have demonstrated exceptional character, community engagement, leadership potential, entrepreneurial spirit, academic strength, and intellectual curiosity.

For 10 years, alumni, parents, and faculty/staff have come together on Scarlet & Give Back Day to support Grinnell students. Every gift — of any size — makes a difference and can go even further thanks to exciting challenges and matches.

Finding one’s way in the “real world” can be tough, but Grinnell College students consistently meet the challenge, as our 2021-24 graduates demonstrate.

Donors make incredible opportunities possible for Grinnell students—opening doors to transformative experiences both on and off campus. The Global Learning Program is just one way students are gaining a broader perspective, exploring the world, and applying their knowledge in real-world settings.

Featured prominently on the first three episodes, Mary Zheng ’15 joins season 48 of Survivor.

After graduation, economics and Chinese major Jivyaa Vaidya accepted a job with Morningstar Inc., a global financial services company headquartered in Chicago.

Will and Evelyn Freeman kindly took a few minutes with us to reflect on what their time at Grinnell has meant to them and to share memories from their years of coaching, mentoring, and learning.
