President Elizabeth Kiss welcomes the class of 2021 to Agnes Scott College.

Pioneer, innovator, trendsetter - all are words that embody the essence of a true leader, a trailblazer, and the kind of students we seek to live, learn and grow as future Scotties at Agnes Scott College. The Elizabeth Kiss Trailblazer Scholarship, named in honor of Agnes Scott’s eighth president Dr. Elizabeth Kiss (pronounced “quiche”), is our promise to the young women of today who exemplify the qualities inherent in tomorrow’s leaders.
