Killing us Softly- Screening for Movie Night.


Recently we had a movie night at the Women’s Center where we showed the movie by Jean Kilbourne, explores femininity in the media and the destructive deceptive ideas handed to viewers. After the showing, we sat down as a group and discussed what we thought, any feelings the movie gave us and about current issues we feel are serious in the distorted world of the media and body image.

Are you bi-racial or multi-racial?




Dear friends and colleagues,

The Counseling Center is pleased to be offering a group for students who
identify as bi-racial or multi-racial. The group will be led by one of
our interns, Daphne Nayar, a bi-racial graduate student from the Smith
College School for Social Work. The group will be held for three
consecutive weeks, starting in February, at a mutually convenient time
for the students. A flyer for the group is attached with the contact
information. Daphne will be contacting the students who are interested
to provide more information. The group will be held in the conference
room on the third floor of Doble Hall on the Doble campus in Cambridge.
The goal of the group is to create a safe space for the members to
explore issues of identity. The group is open to both undergraduate and
graduate students.

We would be most appreciative if you would communicate this to any
potentially interested students, by posting or distributing the flyer
or talking to students and other colleagues for whom it would be relevant.
If you have any questions, please contact me at 617-349-8547 or Daphne
at the main number for the center 617-349-8545.




Thank you in advance for your efforts to spread the word.

Cynthia Jirak LICSW
Associate Director
Lesley University Counseling Center

Check out the flyer and look for it around campus
