Grinnell-in-Des Moines: Alumni & Externs Gathering
Serving the common good is at the core of the Grinnell College mission and drives our strong community. It is thus with great care and concern for the health and wellness of our Des Moines-area alumni, students, parents, and friends that we announce the cancellation of both this year's externship program and the corresponding Alumni & Externs gathering scheduled for Wednesday, March 25.
We are disappointed that we are not able to gather as expected; however, social distancing and avoidance of unnecessary travel are both strong counters to the coronavirus (COVID-19). Cancelling these events is a proactive measure that supports the wellbeing of our Grinnell community members.
