Take Back The Night

On April 9th. We cosponsored Take Back The Night with Women's Caucus as a part of their Sexual Assault Awareness Week. The event started at 6:00pm at Heavens Lounge. We first gather in a circle and shared sexual assault stories either found on TBTN web site or of our own. Hearing some girls sharing their own stories was shocking and sad to me. The discussion was followed by the candle light march through eastman quad, residential quad and back to Wilson Commons. Even though we couldn't light the candel successfully because of the wind, it was still a rewarding experience.

For that week, we also cosponsored Clothesline project, in which we encouraged students to draw their feeling about sexual assault on plain t-shirts and hung them up in Hirst Lounge. We can definitely work more with Women's Caucus in the future!

Relay for Life

Friday, April 3rd, 2009 was Relay for Life hosted by U of R. Most sisters stayed the entire 12 hours--6pm to 6am :) We had dedication bags for some sisters we were relaying for, including our alumna Wincheng Lin.

We passed the time by participating in contests like Chubby Bunny and the Frozen T-shirt contest haha.

We also played Never Have I Ever...and some Horse game LOL. We tossed around a football for a while & played poker :D I hope everyone had a lot of fun--we raised a LOT of money. Special recognition to Kerry who raised over $800!!
