Commencement Day 2017
Commencement Day is here! Hillary Rodham Clinton ’69, former secretary of state, global champion for women, and iconic leader of our time, will address the members of the Wellesley College Class of 2017 and an international audience of their family and friends at Wellesley’s 139th Commencement. We invite you to watch Commencement Exercises streamed live (starting at 10:30am) and join the celebration on social media using #Wellesley2017.
