Meredith College is well known for its long history of producing quality teachers who are exceptionally prepared to work in classrooms in the state of North Carolina and beyond. Meredith teacher education graduates often have job offers even before they finish their student teaching. They are prepared to walk into their classrooms ready to lead. 

Meredith’s Theatre and Music programs are providing an opportunity for a double feature of performing arts -- outdoors -- later this week. Audiences can attend a performance of Medea and a choral concert on the same day.

Students in a political science class are working to make sure Meredith students participate in the 2020 election. The class, known as “Meredith Votes,” includes six students whose mission is to “inform the students at Meredith on the different types of voting, the candidates, and empower women to vote on our campus.”

Students in the choirs at Meredith have remained adaptable and resilient as rehearsals and performances take on a different look this year.

The art exhibition Together-We are Having a Good Day is on view in Johnson Hall through November 11. Together features art by mother and son duo Yuko Taylor and King Godwin, whose bond influences each of their own personal expression within their bodies of work. Apart from being an artist, Taylor’s life work has been to support Godwin, an adult with autism.

As resilience continues to play a key role in academic success, Meredith finds new ways to support students through tutoring and coaching.

A major part of the work of Meredith’s Office of Student Leadership and Service (SLS) is providing opportunities for students to participate in College-sponsored programs outside of the classroom. Student events remain a priority during the COVID-19 pandemic, because of the positive impact of social engagement and participation in campus activities.
