Students, Faculty, Staff and Administrators,
As we approach the end of 2011-2012, the staff at the Women's Center would like to thank members of the Women's Center Advisory Board, interns, student employees, and multiple divisions, departments and student organizations for collaborating with the Women's Center to this year a success.
Some of our successful programs for 2011-2012 included:
- Presentation by Katie Koestner, the executive director of the Take Back the Night Foundation, followed by a sexual assault awareness training for freshman and student leaders, athletes, fraternity and sorority members and residence services staff;
- Women's Center Scholarship Fundraiser: Mothers, Mentors and Muses;
- Walk a Mile in Her Shoes®: The International Men's March to Stop Rape, Sexual Assault and Gender Violence;
- Take Back the Night;
- Yoga for faculty and staff;
- Bi-annual mammogram van program;
- International brown bag series;
- Development of the Women's Center pantry; and
- Educational programming on breast cancer, domestic/relationship violence, sexual assault, heart disease, sexual health, body image, gender stereotypes, and healthy relationships.
We are looking forward to a productive fall and successful 2012-2013. Have a great summer.
