Several celebratory events are held for the Senior Class during the academic year, as well as during the days just prior to Commencement (commonly known as “Senior Week”). The planning for these programs is a joint effort of the Senior Class Officers and staff from the Office of Campus Life, Dean’s Office and College Relations, with additional logistical support from many campus offices including Campus Safety, Dining Services, Facilities, and others.

  • As we approach Senior Week, we have the opportunity for students to invite a Faculty or Staff Guest to attend the cocktail hour reception at the Senior Dinner Dance at Mt. Hope from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, June 4th, 2025.

    This is a great way to show your appreciation for the impact that they have had on your time at Williams.

    You can submit the name of one college employee (faculty or staff member) that you would like to have attend this event.

    This form will open in May 2025, stay tuned for more information. As a reminder the attendee will only be invited for the reception hour and must depart following that portion of the program.
