Rewriting the Narrative: Student Voices
Identity, community, and the power of representation are brought to the forefront by the pieces in Rewriting the Narrative: Student Voices. This exhibition highlights the views and visions of current students and recent alumni, while also and celebrating the strength in our diversity.
So far 2020 has been a challenging year for many of us due to the global pandemic and the continued brutal acts of violence against people of color. We have all had to make so many changes in such a short amount of time; we have had to rethink how we teach, learn and how we interact and connect with each other. Times of change such as these force us to think about who we are and who we want to be. Now is a time for reflection and reevaluation of ourselves and our communities. So far, this year has taught us that we are adaptable; we can change and still be true to ourselves. We can stand up for what we believe in and we still find ways to share and connect with our communities.
