This club will be started to create representation for Indigenous students that are a part of Bard’s campus. Cultural representation has been taken away from us, and the spark of cultural appropriation hides the truth of who we are and what our traditions are. Bard has many organizations for other students of color on campus, each having their own unique identity. I want to give a place where there is representation for specifically Indigenous students on campus. This association is not only made for students with Native blood, but for those who want to help us break the generations worth of misinformation, to become educated, hopefully getting inspired to educate the rest of the Bard community. People not only should know the true history, but the culture of different Indigenous peoples. I want to give students confidence, to not be ashamed of their heritage, but instead, be proud of it.

Our mission is to stimulate members of the Bard College community to explore intellectual, political, cultural, and social issues that are of importance to the Black community and America as a whole. Black History and current race issues are articulated through dialogue, cultural performances, music, lectures, and art. Race and politics are issues that are often recognized on our campus in through our academic curriculum. However, we as an organization feel that it is necessary to find creative ways to take that experience beyond the classroom brining the links between race, politics, academics, and social life to fruition in the hopes that awareness will spark action and ignite change in our communities.

Reem-Kayden Center Laszlo Z. Bito '60 Auditorium
The field of STEM offers many personal and professional rewards. However, emotions may stand in the way of such rewards. In this workshop, we will explore imposter syndrome and other socioemotional phenomena which may affect one’s ability to engage with and succeed in a field as competitive and demanding as those in STEM. Participants will have an opportunity to explore and reflect on their feelings towards studying STEM. Participants begin by reflecting on and sharing their previous learning experiences to place these experiences in context, learning that: (1) they are not alone; (2) their experiences are likely not tied to them as an individual, but are a result of sociohistorical forces. This allows students to think deeply and critically about how they approach their studies. Participants then reorient themselves based on these new realizations and their motivation to succeed. This reorientation includes strategies and tips for studying, focusing on learning mathematics in particular. Finally the workshop gives participants an opportunity to work on a mathematical problem, setting the stage for a positive opportunity to engage with mathematics and their other studies. All participants are encouraged to participate in small-group and whole session discussions throughout the program, reducing the “I’m alone” stigma and forming bonds with others in the group. They are also encouraged to continue working and studying together after the workshop is completed.
Dr. Geillan Aly, the Founder of Compassionate Math, is a math educator who centers the socioemotional factors that contribute to success in mathematics. She holds the fundamental assumption that learning math is both an emotional and cognitive endeavor. A former award-winning Assistant Professor who has taught for over fifteen years, Dr. Aly transforms math classrooms through engaging professional development and student-focused workshops that center emotions while establishing a culture of engaging with rigorous mathematics. She received her PhD in Teaching and Teacher Education and Master’s in Mathematics from the University of Arizona. Underlying Dr. Aly’s work is a dedication to equity and social justice. She enjoys traveling and seeing live music and is an avid chef, wife, and mother to a beautiful boy.Sponsored by: Dean of the College; Division of Science, Mathematics, and Computing; Office of Equity and Inclusion.

Carol Gilligan's landmark book In a Different Voice (1982)—the “little book that started a revolution” brought women's voices to the fore in work on the self and moral development, enabling women to be heard in their own right, and with their own integrity, for the first time. Forty years later, Gilligan returns to the subject matter of her classic book, re-examining its central arguments and concerns from the vantage point of the present. Thanks to the work that she and others have done in recent decades, it is now possible to clarify and articulate what couldn't quite be seen or said at the time of the original publication: that the “different voice” (of care ethics), although initially heard as a “feminine” voice, is in fact a human voice—and that the voice it differs from is a patriarchal voice (bound to gender binaries and hierarchies). While gender is central to the story Gilligan tells, this is not a story about gender: it is a human story.
Copies of the book will be signed and sold.
This event is sponsored by the Gender Equity Initiative, the Hannah Arendt Center, the Office of the Dean of Inclusive Excellence, the Open Society University Network, the Master of Arts in Teaching Program, and the Programs in Gender and Sexuality Studies, Philosophy, Psychology, and Sociology

At Bard, we are deeply committed to inclusive excellence and as a way to amplify the importance of Women’s History Month, we are excited to launch our Inaugural Women of Bard Social Gathering. This year’s theme is Leadership & Courage in Action. Join us in celebrating women from across campus who are leading with courage every day at Bard. This year's mixer offers an inspiring opportunity for the entire Bard community to hear and learn from exceptional individuals who identify as women, showcasing their leadership and courage in action. We invite people of all genders and backgrounds to join us as we build community and fellowship, and amplify the voices of these phenomenal individuals who identify as women of Bard.
In celebration of Women's History Month, we're recognizing the incredible women who make Bard a special place. We're looking for nominations of women who inspire us with their courage, compassion, and unseen leadership. These are the women who go above and beyond, leading by example and making a positive impact without always needing the spotlight. They might be faculty members, staff, students, or even those who contribute to the Bard community in other ways.

Campus Center, Red Room 203This club will be started to create representation for Indigenous students that are a part of Bard’s campus. Cultural representation has been taken away from us, and the spark of cultural appropriation hides the truth of who we are and what our traditions are. Bard has many organizations for other students of color on campus, each having their own unique identity. I want to give a place where there is representation for specifically Indigenous students on campus. This association is not only made for students with Native blood, but for those who want to help us break the generations worth of misinformation, to become educated, hopefully getting inspired to educate the rest of the Bard community. People not only should know the true history, but the culture of different Indigenous peoples. I want to give students confidence, to not be ashamed of their heritage, but instead, be proud of it.

Imposter Syndrome in STEM
Geillan Aly, Compassionate Math
Wednesday, March 27, 2024
1:30–3 pm
Reem-Kayden Center Laszlo Z. Bito '60 AuditoriumThe field of STEM offers many personal and professional rewards. However, emotions may stand in the way of such rewards. In this workshop, we will explore imposter syndrome and other socioemotional phenomena which may affect one’s ability to engage with and succeed in a field as competitive and demanding as those in STEM. Participants will have an opportunity to explore and reflect on their feelings towards studying STEM. Participants begin by reflecting on and sharing their previous learning experiences to place these experiences in context, learning that: (1) they are not alone; (2) their experiences are likely not tied to them as an individual, but are a result of sociohistorical forces. This allows students to think deeply and critically about how they approach their studies. Participants then reorient themselves based on these new realizations and their motivation to succeed. This reorientation includes strategies and tips for studying, focusing on learning mathematics in particular. Finally the workshop gives participants an opportunity to work on a mathematical problem, setting the stage for a positive opportunity to engage with mathematics and their other studies. All participants are encouraged to participate in small-group and whole session discussions throughout the program, reducing the “I’m alone” stigma and forming bonds with others in the group. They are also encouraged to continue working and studying together after the workshop is completed.
Dr. Geillan Aly, the Founder of Compassionate Math, is a math educator who centers the socioemotional factors that contribute to success in mathematics. She holds the fundamental assumption that learning math is both an emotional and cognitive endeavor. A former award-winning Assistant Professor who has taught for over fifteen years, Dr. Aly transforms math classrooms through engaging professional development and student-focused workshops that center emotions while establishing a culture of engaging with rigorous mathematics. She received her PhD in Teaching and Teacher Education and Master’s in Mathematics from the University of Arizona. Underlying Dr. Aly’s work is a dedication to equity and social justice. She enjoys traveling and seeing live music and is an avid chef, wife, and mother to a beautiful boy.Sponsored by: Dean of the College; Division of Science, Mathematics, and Computing; Office of Equity and Inclusion.

Carol Gilligan: In a Human Voice
Friday, March 29, 2024
12–1 pm
Campus Center, Weis CinemaCarol Gilligan's landmark book In a Different Voice (1982)—the “little book that started a revolution” brought women's voices to the fore in work on the self and moral development, enabling women to be heard in their own right, and with their own integrity, for the first time. Forty years later, Gilligan returns to the subject matter of her classic book, re-examining its central arguments and concerns from the vantage point of the present. Thanks to the work that she and others have done in recent decades, it is now possible to clarify and articulate what couldn't quite be seen or said at the time of the original publication: that the “different voice” (of care ethics), although initially heard as a “feminine” voice, is in fact a human voice—and that the voice it differs from is a patriarchal voice (bound to gender binaries and hierarchies). While gender is central to the story Gilligan tells, this is not a story about gender: it is a human story.
Copies of the book will be signed and sold.
This event is sponsored by the Gender Equity Initiative, the Hannah Arendt Center, the Office of the Dean of Inclusive Excellence, the Open Society University Network, the Master of Arts in Teaching Program, and the Programs in Gender and Sexuality Studies, Philosophy, Psychology, and Sociology

This year’s theme is Leadership & Courage in Action. Join us in celebrating women from across campus who are leading with courage every day at Bard. This year's mixer offers an inspiring opportunity for the entire Bard community to hear and learn from exceptional individuals who identify as women, showcasing their leadership and courage in action. We invite people of all genders and backgrounds to join us as we build community and fellowship, and amplify the voices of these phenomenal individuals who identify as women of Bard.
In celebration of Women's History Month, we're recognizing the incredible women who make Bard a special place. We're looking for nominations of women who inspire us with their courage, compassion, and unseen leadership. These are the women who go above and beyond, leading by example and making a positive impact without always needing the spotlight.

Kappa House Common RoomJoin us! The purpose of Boricuas En La Luna (or “BELL”) is to create a safe and lively environment for all Puerto Ricans on campus, through gatherings, activities, exhibitions, luncheons, and bashes or “teteos”. Through this club, we strive to bring a piece of our culture to the Bard community, sharing our art, food, music, and more to further enrich the diversity on campus. BELL would sponsor parties and functions thrown by its members as part of the celebrations and expositions. We welcome any and all people in the campus who want to learn more of our culture and diversify their knowledge! Those interested in signing up can expect to participate or assist in events full of great food, music, learning opportunities and possibly field trips to our nearest local Puerto Rican business.Sponsored by: Student Activities.
