Exploring the Multiple Meanings of Love Student Workshop
Presented by Jessica Dutille
High Impact Learning Partner in the Center for Transformation, Plymouth State University
Wednesday, February 28th, 5:30-7pm.
Center for Transformation, Lamson Library room 003
Love is literally everywhere, especially during the month of February. It has been written about, talked about, and sung about throughout all of history, but what is the role that love plays in our lives and in our society beyond romantic feelings between two people? Please join us for this workshop as we explore the multiple meanings of love and how this most universal and powerful force can transform our individual lives and build communities of compassion.
Pizza will be provided!
“A deep sense of love and belonging is an irreducible need of all women, men, and children. We are biologically, cognitively, physically, and spiritually wired to love, to be loved, and to belong.”

What is being an ally? In the age of specialized Facebook filters, hashtags, and various symbols as allyship initiatives, it can be difficult to know how to support people in our lives from marginalized communities. Sometimes it’s also difficult to figure out where to start: which resources are accurate, how to ask questions without being afraid of saying the wrong thing, or how to foster equity in various settings. If this sounds like you, stop by for a low risk opportunity to chat more about what it means to be an active ally. No prior knowledge is necessary; bring a willingness to engage in dialogue and an open mind.
