There’s something about the crisp fall air that makes us long for the banks of Paradise Pond and the joys of Northampton more than usual. How wonderful would it feel to be back on campus right now, snuggled up with a cup of tea in your house living room, surrounded by Smithies? While we may all long for these days, there’s a warm and welcoming community of Smithies here in the Philadelphia area that revels in those beloved Smith Traditions right along with you and who can reignite that special feeling once again.
