Wellesley College Poem

*Wellesley College*

Sisterhood’s the cornerstone of Wellesley,
This fam’ makes the grade via A-listers,
Dear school by the lake, your beauty tells thee,
Each class a color, each soul with sisters.
Colors unite as white clouds to the Blue,
Wellesley sisters, your true colors suit you,
They Scream from Tunnels to tell your story,
Singing at Houghton helps yell your glory.
A center world-figures have called their home,
Clinton, Sawyer, and Dahl are professors
of Wellesley’s guidance from great professors
Who’ve led Wellesley to a league of its own:
Where women aren’t ministered unto,
They edify the world they leap onto.
