Wolff, Mindy Oral History

Scope and content:

A member of the Class of 1975, Mindy Wolff hailed from the Philadelphia suburbs and was an accomplished swimmer before ever stepping foot on the campus of William & Mary. She qualified for the 1968 Olympic trials, but injuries derailed her elite swimming aspirations, though not her love for the sport. She brought that love with her, spending four years competing on the swim team. Her greatest collegiate memories were the trips to Idaho, Arizona, and Penn State for nationals. After college, she taught math, eventually becoming a tutor. Her interview includes gender equality on campus, being a "Yankee" in the south, the network she's forged because of William & Mary, her desire for an engineering program at her alma mater, and advice for future college students.
