Excerpt from thank you letter to the WAB
from Mazvita Chikomo ’22

The Women’s Advisory Board is a great bunch of women! They’re all so friendly and really passionate about the work that they do.

I’m so thankful for their support during my college career.

I would never forget my freshman year international orientation picnic with the Women’s Advisory Board. All the members cooked delicious dishes from around the world. The picnic bonded all of us together as a new family in Wooster.

The organization always supports us and makes us feel Wooster is a welcoming home.
