Loving the calligraphy of Genevieve Goldleaf ’12. This is from a series of correspondence cards she designed for Wellesley’s resources office. They feature phrases from College founders and early presidents that include botanical references as metaphors for education. Margaret Clapp was a president of Wellesley College in the 1950s; this phase is drawn from her inaugural speech, 1956.
We must learn how, each for herself, to distinguish the seeds that we must plant if we are to have, in the long run, the harvest which we wish…If not sure which seeds, reflect before planting; if still not sure, plant something. —Margaret Clapp, December 1956
