By attending Bard College in Annandale, or any institution in the Bard Network, you are automatically a member of the Bard College Alumni/ae Association. The Alumni/ae Association is here to strengthen the connection between alumni/ae and the College and help Bardians everywhere, of every graduating class, to stay in touch. There are now more than 19,000 Bard alumni/ae—and that number is growing, as close to half of all Bardians have graduated in the last 20 years.
The Bard College Alumni/ae Association, its Board of Governors, and its committees are committed to maintaining shared values of antiracism, justice, equity, diversity, inclusion, and access in all aspects of programming and interactions with Bard College community members, including but not limited to students, faculty, administration, fellow alumni/ae, and guests.
Thank you everyone, from Reunion Classes ending in 4s and 9s, we've met and surpassed the $84,000 match!
Thanks to your fellow alumni/ae for making this possible.
Join your fellow alums by continuing the reunion tradition and making a difference in the lives of our students. Your support, at any level, is what makes Bard possible. Thank you!
Thank you to all alumni/ae from Reunion classes ending in 4s and 9s for your support of Bard so far this fiscal year!

The Board of Governors
The work of the Bard College Alumni/ae Association relies on the active participation of alumni/ae on the committees of the Board of Governors. Alumni/ae from all eras of Bard’s history serve on this volunteer board and act as ambassadors of the College. We welcome all alumni/ae to attend Board of Governors meetings, which are held in May and December each year.
Interested in volunteering? There are multiple ways to help and engage. We encourage alumni/ae to get involved with the Board of Governors, volunteer as mentors for current students, host events, and serve on reunion committees. Getting involved is more important than ever. Email us at [email protected] to connect.

Bomb Magazine Interviews Artist and Filmmaker Tiffany Sia ’10 about Her New Book, On and Off-Screen Imaginaries
Bard alumna Tiffany Sia ’10 thinks and works across text and film. Her newest book, On and Off-Screen Imaginaries, is a collection of six essays that grapple with the complexities of post-colonial experience. The first three essays focus on new Hong Kong cinema and examine the national security policies, censorship, surveillance that followed Hong Kong’s mass protests in 2019 and 2020. The second half of the book “abruptly drifts toward other geographies,” says Sia.

Bard alumna Tiffany Sia ’10 thinks and works across text and film. Her newest book, On and Off-Screen Imaginaries, is a collection of six essays that grapple with the complexities of post-colonial experience. The first three essays focus on new Hong Kong cinema and examine the national security policies, censorship, surveillance that followed Hong Kong’s mass protests in 2019 and 2020. The second half of the book “abruptly drifts toward other geographies, specifically the US, as I challenge how dominant Asian American aesthetics conceive of a falsely unified imaginary of Asia and its politics,” says Sia. She reimagines the work of Vietnamese American photographer An-My Lê in one essay and the work of Taiwanese filmmaker King Hu in another. “The essays trace a shift in my focus beyond Hong Kong––toward the ‘elsewhere’ sites of the Cold War, such as Vietnam, Taiwan, and even Lithuania and Turkey, in brief mention––and facile East-West tensions to illuminate a lattice of North-South tensions and their vexing histories and politics,” says Sia, who recently won the prestigious 2024 Art Baloise Prize, which carries an award of approximately $33,400.
Performance at Aix-en-Provence Festival by Bard Conservatory Alumna Jacquelyn Stucker ’13 Reviewed in the New York Times
Jacquelyn Stucker ’13, an alumna of Bard’s Graduate Vocal Arts Program, was reviewed in the New York Times for her role as Delilah in the opera Samson, a never-performed opera by Voltaire and Rameau, two of Enlightenment France’s most important cultural figures. Samson was performed as an updated production with pieces drawn from other Rameau works to replace the original score, which was lost some 250 years ago, at the Aix-en-Provence festival.

Jacquelyn Stucker ’13, an alumna of Bard’s Graduate Vocal Arts Program, was reviewed in the New York Times for her role as Delilah in the opera Samson at the Aix-en-Provence festival. Samson, a never-performed opera by Voltaire and Rameau, two of Enlightenment France’s most important cultural figures, was performed as an updated production with pieces drawn from other Rameau works to replace the original score, which was lost some 250 years ago. The Aix production “retains the hypnotic continuity of Rameau’s complete operas, their steadiness and also their variety, veering from festive to soulful, from raucous dances to hushed, hovering arias and radiant choruses,” writes Zachary Woolfe for the New York Times. “The mezzo-soprano Lea Desandre (Timna) and the soprano Jacquelyn Stucker (Dalila) are both exquisitely sensitive in their floating music.”
Bard Physicists Paul Cadden-Zimansky, Li-Heng Henry Chang ’23, Ziyu Xu ’23, and Shea Roccaforte ’21 Coauthor Cover Story in the American Journal of Physics
Associate Professor of Physics Paul Cadden-Zimansky and three recent Bard graduates Li-Heng Henry Chang ’23, Ziyu Xu ’23, and Shea Roccaforte ’21, have coauthored the cover story in the July 2024 issue of the American Journal of Physics. Their peer-reviewed research article, “Geometric visualizations of single and entangled qubits,” presents a new way of visualizing the phenomenon of quantum entanglement between two interacting objects.

Associate Professor of Physics Paul Cadden-Zimansky and three recent Bard graduates in physics and mathematics Li-Heng Henry Chang ’23, Ziyu Xu ’23, and Shea Roccaforte ’21, have coauthored the cover story in the July 2024 issue of the American Journal of Physics. Their peer-reviewed research article, “Geometric visualizations of single and entangled qubits,” presents a new way of visualizing the phenomenon of quantum entanglement between two interacting objects. Intended for a range of audiences—from students just starting to learn about concepts in quantum mechanics to active researchers who are using quantum bits ("qubits") to create new types of computers, sensors, and secure communication systems—the article focuses on visual tools and maps that can be used to complement the formal mathematics and algebra of quantum mechanics.
