As it has in years past, Meredith College is offering a variety of summer school courses throughout the summer months. This year, courses will be offered in multiple formats including online, face-to-face, and hybrid.

Meredith College welcomed Damon Tweedy, a physician and author, for its Spring 2021 Convocation, which was held virtually on February 25, 2021. The presentation, “A Doctor’s Reflections on Race and Medicine,” built on Tweedy’s New York Times bestselling book, Black Man in a White Coat, a memoir of his experience grappling with race, bias, and the unique health problems of Black Americans.

Meredith College’s sixth annual Make It Count for Meredith Giving Day held February 23, 2021, exceeded its $600,000 fundraising goal by more than $100,000. A total of 2,614 donors contributed $714,798 in 24 hours, pushing the day’s giving to 119% of the initial goal. 

Through Meredith’s Graduate Assistantship Scholarship Program, students who are selected as graduate assistants benefit from both paying reduced tuition and gaining significant professional experience.
