03-09 Meeting Minutes

Sorry for the absence- TBTN committee did not meet last Monday due to spring break.  The last planning meeting was on Monday, March 9th and we broke up into two groups: publicity and outreach.  For publicity, we have added Take Back the Night on the UW student calendar and are planning on creating fliers and dorm stuffers soon in order to advertise.  

From wsu.edu/~wrc/Coalition/tbtn.html:

"Take Back the Night: gathering within a controlled space that is free from violence and intimidation.  Elevating the consciousness of a campus community in regard to reclaiming the right of women to live and work in an environment free of violence.  Take Back the Night is an empowering experience for women around the world, acting as a variety for reaffirmation of self and allowing victims to come forth and rid themselves of hatred, self doubt and fear.  By sharing their stories, each of these women strengthens her ability to 'take back' her sense of self, of control, and to re-establish self love"

Nicely put!

There will be a meeting tonight at the Campus Women's Center at 6:30!!
