“Even though Salem is a small college, it challenges you to be a part of something big. In the classroom, in student organizations, in your dorm—you are empowered with the opportunity to decide what you think and what you have to offer. But more than this, Salem challenges young women to define how we can contribute to our community and to our world.”
