2021 Goucher Symposium
Each year, Goucher College sets aside a day in the academic calendar to hold the Goucher Symposium, a celebration of student learning and scholarship. This year, we continue our tradition. Undeterred by the unprecedented circumstances that have kept us at a distance, Goucher will bring together and celebrate the culminating work of our students.
On May 11, 2021, students across all twelve Academic Centers of the College are sharing their talents, their reflections, and their research through displays, performances, and presentations in an online format.
We are proud to share these projects, which capture the breadth and depth of our students’ accomplishments and typify the transformative power of a Goucher education in and beyond the classroom throughout our local community, and around the world.
This year’s symposium features more than 90 original student works spread across 16 Zoom sessions. Click the session title in the schedule below for a detailed list of the works being presented in that session and a Zoom link to join the discussion.
