Join us for the next installment of the Alumnae Initiative for Women’s (AI4W) Conversation Series, an opportunity to learn from and about alumnae, students and staff on interesting and important topics, to network with other attendees, and to promote women’s voices on campus.

Our fall online discussion is presented in collaboration with the University of St. Michael's College Division of Continuing Education and will delve into the evolving landscape of the Catholic Church.

The Alumnae Initiative for Women (AI4W) enriches the experiences of all St. Mike’s women through advocacy, leadership and philanthropy. Our members are women who have lived or studied at St. Mike’s. Twice a year, as part of the Spring Reunion and Fall Convocation events, we host the AI4W Conversations Series which invites alumnae and friends back to campus to share their insights, experiences and advice with other St. Mike’s women – students, faculty, staff and alumnae.
