Wish you could come to Dickinson to meet President Margee Ensign but can’t find the time to make the trip? Don’t worry—she’s coming to you!
She will continue touring the country to get to know the wider Dickinson community and discuss the college’s mission of using the useful liberal arts to prepare students to work toward the common good. Each event will feature a moderated Q&A session as well as the chance to mix and mingle with the new president and your fellow Dickinsonians.
