Otherwise known as the Tanner and Ruhlman conferences. Twice a year, everyone stops what they’re doing and gathers to listen to students talk about their work. At the Ruhlman, they present their research and scholarship. At the Tanner, they report on their experience outside the classroom—internships, service learning, international study. Pretty much the essence of Wellesley.
