What to Expect: Meaningful Connection

INSPIRE events are designed to foster genuine connection and understanding.

INSPIRE Rounds: Hear, Share, Connect

Our signature 60-minute Zoom gatherings feature a live storytelling experience from a fellow alumna, followed by intimate small group discussions where you can:

  • Hear firsthand how other women navigate life’s challenges.
  • Engage in authentic conversation in small breakout rooms.
  • Explore shared themes like balancing expectations, career shifts, and personal growth.

“Hearing one woman’s story unlocked something in me. I realized I wasn’t alone in my experience.” — Class of ’92

“The small group discussions felt so safe and supportive. I left feeling truly seen.” — Class of ’05

Who’s Welcome: An Inclusive Community

INSPIRE is for any Dartmouth alum interested in connecting authentically with other women. We celebrate the diversity of our alumnae body and are committed to inclusivity. Our women-centered community and programming welcome all who could benefit, including trans women, cis women, and non-binary and gender non-conforming people, and those who might otherwise be marginalized.
