Every year WOC sells t-shirts for Mountain Day - all profit goes to a charitable outdoor organization of the board’s choosing. We’re looking for this year’s 2023 FRONT only design - needs to have “Mountain Day 2023” incorporated in the design! The winner will receive a shirt free of charge and eternal fame. Designs are due by 11:59 pm on Sunday, Sept 17th! Click here to submit. Email Nasida Meher [log in to unmask] with any questions.

We respectfully acknowledge that Williams College stands on the ancestral homelands of the Stockbridge-Munsee Mohicans, who are the indigenous peoples of the region now called Williamstown. Following tremendous hardship after being forced from their valued homelands, they continued as a sovereign Tribal Nation in Wisconsin, which is where they reside today. We pay honor and respect to their ancestors past and present as we commit to building a more inclusive and equitable space for all.
