Let It Flow

“Everything flows and nothing abides; everything gives way and nothing stays fixed.” 

That was a claim of the Greek philosopher Heraclitus.

At Swarthmore, the stories flow—from pilots flying high to conquer new horizons, scientists trekking across grasslands to save vanishing species, engineers studying bridges to build better roads, doctors creating bikes for those who can’t walk, hikers giving up and then refusing to give in, community leaders organizing support systems for the elderly and for refugees. Swarthmore alumni break new ground—they continue to lead, they continue to move.

They move systems, they move mountains, they move people, they move ... giraffes. They move spacecraft, they move pinballs, they remove barriers. It’s a dizzying ride.

Explore—and be thrilled by—Swarthmore’s life in motion, through the steady eye of the Bulletin!
