Liz Foley '07 works as a physician in a busy emergency department in Hartford, CT. "It is an exciting and rewarding job, although at times exhausting and stressful, and never more so than during the COVID-19 pandemic. We saw many critically ill patients at the peak of the pandemic in CT, but fortunately the number of COVID cases has declined in our area. I was also pregnant during this time which added additional anxiety. I'm currently home with a healthy newborn and am grateful we were able to stay safe!

I am and have always been proud to be part of AWS. Thank you to the many alumni out there working to get us through this. Looking forward to a return to normalcy with Saturday afternoon games, reunions, and of course, tailgates"

Calling our AWS family near and far!

Lots of love for these nine juniors! Many studied abroad (part of) this spring in Sevilla, Prague, Paris, and Madrid... still hopeful for an eventual postcard. Don’t worry too much, we had a trusted trio holding down the fort in Amherst.
