Sweet Briar Days are here Sweet Briar Days, set forth by the Alumnae Association in 1922, were
traditionally held on Dec. 28. They are a special day for all members of the Sweet Briar family to gather and celebrate the
relationships they have with one another through Sweet Briar. In recent years, clubs have been encouraged to hold their gatherings during the
holiday season when current students are at home and to invite
prospective students and their families to join in the festivities. Check the club calendar for a Sweet Briar Day near you. |
