Smith College Class of 1979 "Embrace Change" Survey

Dear Smith 1979 Classmate,

This anonymous, multiple choice survey was designed to give our class a picture of how we’ve all been navigating our mid-60s, including life changes due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We’d like the presentation of survey results at our 45th reunion to include your responses.

Please complete this 5-minute survey before May 1, 2024. We appreciate your time and hope to meet you at reunion.
