R-MWC Alumnae and Randolph College Alumni Association

Dear Alumnae and Alumni,

Phebe Williamson Wescott ’78

When our world turns upside down, we want to hold on to those closest to our hearts.

Life has changed dramatically for all of us, and every day brings new information and new adjustments. Like you, we are trying to make sense of this “new normal” while we take care of our friends, families, and communities.

Our webpage will be re-designed with the goal of supporting, comforting, and connecting you with others. We will also provide resources to spark creativity and happiness.

In the meantime, we know you will approach these times in the spirit of vita abundantior by looking outward as well as within. We look forward to hearing your stories and seeing you on campus when we can all be together again.

#RandolphTogether

Vita abundantior,

Phebe Williamson Wescott ’78
Director of Alumnae and Alumni Relations

They say, that the red brick wall, and each ivy-covered hall,
And the tower standing tall, were put here for just you and me.
They say, that the love, and the friends we have made
Were put here for just you and me.
And from the day that we came to the day that we go,
What they say is so true, this we know.
They say, that the red brick wall, and each ivy-covered hall,
And the tower standing tall, were put here for just you and me.
They say, that the wall–, and each hall–, tower tall–,
Were put here for just you and me.
