Hello All,

 The Office of Diversity Initiatives and Women’s Center are looking for students and faculty members interested in participating in this year’s Vagina Monologues. Please forward this email to any one who might be interested. Below is some background on the event. Just to clear up any confusion, this event was originally cancelled for this year but now it is definitely back on! Please don’t hesitate to contact me for more information regarding this exciting event!

Thank you,

The Vagina Monologues:

Originally a one woman play written by Eve Ensler in 1996, The Vagina Monologues were a collection of women’s thoughts, stories, and experiences relating to vaginas, and ultimately representing themes like female empowerment and struggles, sexual freedom, gender issues, and violence against women. Since then it has become the cornerstone of V-Day, a movement to end violence against women. The play has been performed and adapted on college campuses and local communities all over the country as well as the world.

The Dickinson Vagina Monologues:

Dickinson students will have the opportunity to write and perform their own vagina monologues through a workshop led by Susannah Bartlow, director of the Women’s Center. For those of you who went last year, you remember how amazing the event was! This semester Dickinson College will be collaborating with the Dickinson Law School, whose students will be performing some of the original monologues.

If you are interested please attend our information session:
