Goucher College

Learning and becoming a global changemaker doesn't have an age limit. That, among many reasons within the changing higher education landscape, is why we're to partner with Edenwald Senior Living and promote intergenerational dialogue.

Goucher junior Eden Rovner has received many T-shirts during his time at Goucher—from a blood drive, from President Devereaux’s inauguration, from volunteering on congressional campaigns. Instead of letting them sit in the back of his closet, he’s decided to use them to make a quilt memorializing his many Goucher experiences.
