Feature Story I

As Bennies, we know the impact of living our motto and letting our lights shine. We’ve seen it in the sisters who lit the spark more than a century ago. And we’ve seen it in generations of alumnae. Now we have our own chance to shine – simply by telling our stories.

Bennie Conversations: How She Shines is an initiative to capture and preserve hundreds of recorded one-on-one interviews. Our goal is to record 500 of these alumnae conversations. But to do that, we need you. Can you help?

Share your story.

• Participate in a one-to-one interview, either in person or by phone.
• Don’t have time to sit down for an interview but still want to share your story? Share via our online submission portal. 

Help capture the story.

• Volunteer to interview other Bennies.
• Nominate Bennies with great stories to share.
• Nominate Bennies who are great listeners to become interviewers.

You can learn more here, then just fill out this form or contact Abby Hansen ’12 to take part.
Throughout the Illuminating Lives campaign, we’ll be posting Bennie Conversations and more on the campaign website. Visit often to hear new Bennie stories!
