Letter from the Head

Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about journeys.

At Lincoln, we are proud of both our purposefully small size and our impressively broad offerings—one of which is Global Programs. By the time you receive this issue of our new magazine, I will be on March Break with Lincoln students and faculty in Morocco. There, in addition to visiting Marrakech, we will be working with—and learning from—Moroccan women at a women-owned cooperative in the foothills of the Atlas Mountains while staying with Moroccan families. This opportunity for cultural immersion and exchange, as well as exposure to geopolitics and economics, reflects Lincoln’s commitment to educating citizens of the world.

One of our school’s greatest assets is its vibrant alumnae network. The easing of the

COVID crisis has enabled me to resume traveling to meet with its members and see how a Lincoln education has served them. As I get to know these women, I am struck again and again by the diversity of their life journeys and the multitude of ways to define success.

And speaking of alumnae, Reunion Weekend this May will be here before we know it. While every reunion is exciting, this weekend will be especially meaningful for me as I celebrate my 35th. I invite all former students from class years ending in 3 or 8 to journey back to campus to celebrate the passion, purpose, creativity, and boldness that make us uniquely Lincoln.

Onward Together,

Sophie Glenn Lau ’88, Head of School
