In It
In It is a suite of programs designed to deepen our understanding of different perspectives and foster a more connected community.

Foundations in Creating an Affirming Campus for Trans & Nonbinary Students
Series of workshops catered to students, staff, and faculty focusing on developing a deeper understanding of gender identity & expression.

Lovefest 
Coinciding with Valentine’s Day, Lovefest aims to offer the community a space where everyone is loved and welcomed. It honors the tenets of diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice to which the Wyckoff Center is dedicated. The program also reflects ůůֱ’s commitment to the health and well-being of the community, a strategic priority of the College.  We are guided by bell hooks’ wisdom from her book “All ůůֱ Love: New Visions”: “To truly love we must learn to mix various ingredients — care, affection, recognition, respect, commitment, and trust, as well as honest and open communication.”

Gather in Pride
Join us on Monday, June 15 from 3-4pm in the Wyckoff Center for Gather in Pride, a college-wide celebration of LGBTQIA+ Pride Month centered on community, creativity, and connection. Enjoy refreshments, creative activities, and opportunities to mingle while reflecting on the histories, resilience, and contributions of LGBTQIA+ communities. Brief remarks at 3:30pm will honor the importance of remembering our past as we look toward a more inclusive future. All members of the campus community are welcome.

Alex Locust, a Black-white biracial, queer Disability Justice educator, community builder, and “Glamputee” will join us on April 23 for a mini-residency featuring a class visit, meetings with the Queer Faculty and Staff Group, Task Force on Accessibility, and student groups, culminating with a public talk.
At 4:30pm on April 23 in the Wyckoff Center, Alex will present “Spill the Disabili-Tea: An Interactive Dive into Disability Justice.” This engaging talk will explore key questions about disability, access, and unlearning ableism, inviting reflection and deeper understanding as we work toward more inclusive communities.
