<p>The deans have embarked on a campaign to help students meet the challenges of sophomore year. One of the first moves was to hold a “sophomore collection.” You can hear President Chopp’s speech from the first one, last fall, here: [Swarthmore</a> College Featured Events Blog Archive Sophomore Collection 2009](<a href=“Featured Events :: News & Events :: Swarthmore College”>http://media.swarthmore.edu/featured_events/?p=93) . (First collection is for first-years and last collection is for seniors.) </p>
