鈥淪kidmore is a part of the Saratoga community and has a respected reputation,鈥� she
said. 鈥淭he College also provides a great deal of work-life balance and that is an
important aspect to me.鈥�

Collections section in Scribner Library and Dining Services鈥� Bread Sale.
鈥淭he sense of community that Skidmore provides its students, faculty and staff is
a special feeling,鈥� she said. 鈥淲hen I walk around Skidmore鈥檚 beautiful campus and
see students outside playing Frisbee or employees walking during their lunch break,
it brings me happiness and a smile to my face.鈥�

in coed leagues in Saratoga. In the winter, she is a member of a monthly book club.
