2025 Fall Programming
September

Join the Women’s Center for a Welcome Back Party on Friday, Sept 5th, from 1–3 PM. Head to the Office of Student Equity and Inclusion (lower level of HFSC) for delicious bites from Colada, fun temporary tattoos, games, and creative crafts.

Please join the Women’s Center in our focus group sessions as we imagine what the future of the Center could look like, and share your thoughts on what you would like to see from a new Director! Each session will be led by Women’s Center student staff, last one hour, and include a free meal! Some example questions that we will discuss are:
What kinds of support and events would you like to see from the Women’s Center? What should the next Women’s Center Director be prepared to do, and what kind of leadership do we want to see from them? How might we reimagine the Women’s Center name, and do we want to?
All are welcome and encouraged to join, including students of all gender identities, professional staff, and Capitol Campus students!
