Cultural and Social Justice Programs

-ISM Project

What is an "-ism?" They surround us. We live them. We embrace them. We resist them. Examine the complex ways isms impact your life by taking part in the -ISM Project.  The NASPA Award winning –ISM Project encourages students to analyze various "–isms" in our communities as they relate to race/ethnicity, culture, socioeconomic class, sex/gender, political affiliation, religion/spirituality, and other existing social constructs and identities. UParticipants utilize artistic platforms to creatively express their research and personal understanding of their selected -isms. The resulting projects are showcased at the annual –ISM Project Showcase at the end of the spring semester.

Multiple Identity Film/Speaker Series

Multiple Identity Film/Speaker Series features local speakers and independent films that explore innovative ways personal and social identities such as race, class, religion, sexual orientation, gender and sexuality intersect.
