This Torch Medal is given to Pilar Barrera, Senior Lecturer in Spanish, by Molly Emmett ’12.

Torch Medals honor a ������ faculty or staff member who made a meaningful impact on an alum during their time at ������. Alumni in the reunion classes of 2007 and 2012 are invited to give a Torch Medal, delivered virtually, to a present or past member of the faculty or staff. .

“Pilar was my Spanish teacher during my first year at ������. Pilar went above and beyond to make sure I felt supported at ������ throughout my four years there, and she remains a rock for me to this day. If I can be there for my students in a fraction of the way Pilar was and is for me, I will consider my teaching to be a success.”
