...years Miss Clapp reckoned that she had completed her job. Last week she announced that she will resign next July. "I am convinced," she said, "that Wellesley is at a point in time when it will benefit from fresh vision and new leadership." Characteristically, she then proceeded to instruct her faculty on how to elect a committee to help choose her successor, and even on what to do in case of a tie vote.
