Congratulations to our students who made dean's list for academic achievement during the 2024 spring semester! Go Chargers!
The class of 2024 played against faculty and staff in dodgeball with a victorious win! Colby-Sawyer's graduates are enjoying their final week on campus with senior festivities leading up to Commencement on May 4.
On April 19, Chargers worked together to spruce up campus with gardening, invasive species clean-up, trash and dish pick-up in residential halls and more. The Office of Sustainability also brought in community partners to support the on-campus Earth Day event.
A group of 10 environmental studies and environmental sciences students worked with the Pleasant Lake Protective Association (PLPA) over the course of the year to better understand the Pleasant Lake watershed and surrounding tributaries.
The ceremony celebrated the graduating students in the Class of 2024 who were awarded eight associate degrees, 153 bachelor’s degrees and 41 master’s degrees. It also recognized several members of the college and greater community for academic excellence, outstanding contributions to society and service to the college and its students.
Colby-Sawyer College announced today that former Academic Vice President and Dean of Faculty Laura A. Sykes ’98 has been named interim president for the 2024-25 academic year. Sykes will become the first alumna of the institution to hold this leadership position.
Colby-Sawyer College President Susan D. Stuebner announced that she will step down on June 30, 2024, after eight years in office. Stuebner, who assumed the presidency following the unanimous appointment of the Colby-Sawyer Board of Trustees, will become the 21st president of Marietta College, a private, liberal arts institution in Marietta, Ohio.
After graduating magna cum laude as an honors scholar, Nicolas “Nico” Adornetto ’22 looked for opportunities to continue developing his passion for digital marketing.
The $780,152 raised more than doubles the $371,746 raised during the second rendition of the college’s Day of Giving in 2020. Colby-Sawyer also exceeded its goal of 1,837 donors — a number that pays homage to the year of the college’s founding.
The Ski Day tradition, which gave students a day off in March to participate in winter festivities at the now-closed King Ridge Ski Area, hadn’t been celebrated since the early 1980s. But that all changed this year with the help of a few students and Mount Sunapee Resort.
