Lulu Chow Wang, whose name adorns the labyrinth-like student center at Wellesley College, has been named the school’s 2016 commencement speaker.

Though her legacy is more associated with her philanthropy, including a record-breaking $25M gift with husband Anthony that funded design and construction of the Wellesley College campus center.

At last year’s commencement, author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie dispensed wisdom to “privileged” Wellesley College grads.
