March is Women's History Month
We commemorate and encourage the study, observance and celebration of the vital role of women in history and our society.
Feminine Hygiene Products Drive
We will have a month long Feminine Hygiene Products Drive to benefit the Falcon Bazaar Fitchburg State's Necessity and Food Pantry. Look for the pink collection boxes located at Center for Diversity and Inclusiveness (Hammond G04), Information Desk (Hammond Street Level) and at Housing and Residential Services in Aubuchon Hall N101.
International Women's Day
All are encouraged to wear purple on International Women's Day Wednesday, March 8 to signify justice and dignity. Truly embrace equity on International Women's Day and beyond. Strike the #EmbraceEquity pose.
Equity means creating an inclusive world. When we embrace equity, we embrace diversity, and we embrace inclusion. We embrace equity to forge harmony and unity, and to help drive success for all. Equality is the goal, and equity is the means to get there. Through the process of equity, we can reach equality.
