"Mills is committed to empowering women to achieve their full potential." This phrase and many others from the 2008-2013 Strategic Plan emphasize the College's commitment to "education for leadership." As a student fellow of the 2006-2008 Women's Leadership Institute Roundtable, I am baffled by the paradox of how the College plans to advance this invaluable vision while simultaneously eradicating the very programs that are already working hard to grow students' leadership capacities.
