Alexandra Ann Conroy, of Windham, recently participated in the sixth annual Mount David Summit, a campus-wide exposition of student academic work at Bates College. Sponsored by the Office of the Dean of the Faculty, the summit is designed to celebrate intellectual life at Bates.

More than 300 students gave short talks and readings, screened videos, exhibited artwork and presented posters in disciplines ranging from biology to women’s and gender studies.

Conroy, a 2004 graduate of Windham High School, is the daughter of Francis and Susan Conroy, of 25 Forbes Lane. A junior double-majoring in English and sociology and a dean’s list student, she has been a member of the Merimanders, an all-female a cappella group at Bates, since 2004.
