W. Rochelle Calhoun ’83 Resigns as Association’s Executive Director
In February, W. Rochelle Calhoun ’83 announced her resignation as executive director of the Alumnae Association. Mary Graham Davis ’65, president of the association, wrote, “The Alumnae Association has enjoyed the executive director leadership of Rochelle Calhoun for the past five years. She has made a tremendous mark on the association and on alumnae and students, and we will miss her as she moves on to become the dean of student affairs at Skidmore College. Prior to taking on the executive director position at the association, Rochelle held a number of administrative positions at Mount Holyoke, including director of diversity and inclusion and acting dean of the college.
“Rochelle will be part of all our spring reunion events, and will depart for Skidmore after June 30. This will give us time to fête her accomplishments and provide an appropriate farewell tribute. Meanwhile, the board of the association will commence a search to fill the executive director position, and we hope to have our new director in place this fall.”
A tribute to Rochelle and her impact on the college and the association will run in the summer Quarterly. Please send any accolades for possible publication to Emily Weir (eweir@mtholyoke.edu or c/o Alumnae Association of MHC, 50 College St., S. Hadley, MA 01075-1486.
