Catherine at the College

Last summer, Smith student Catherine Moriarty came to the College for an internship with Mary Murphy, Smith professor and long-time friend. Since then, she has graduated from Smith with a bachelor’s degree in Latin American Studies and a minor in Spanish, and returned to the Carmen Pampa as a visiting professional (volunteer). She has quickly become a key piece of the English program in our Ecotourism major, working with students in all semesters to practice what they learn in class -- and she makes it divertido. She is also skilled in sports, spending time with students as a coach and as a salon soccer and basketball player. Also, one thing our students need is someone just to listen to them, and Catherine is a great listener, giving generously of her time. We are very fortunate to have her.
