Proposals for 2023 Women Leaders Series due January 31!

By Mish Lenhart, January 20, 2023

The Office of Student Engagement is sponsoring the 11th Annual Women Leaders Series (WLS) at Ithaca College in March 2023.

Our planning team invites you to collaborate with us for the 2023 Women Leaders Series! The WLS is a set of presentations, performances, or programs for students to attend, all focused on the topic of women and leadership.

Would you be interested in presenting a 45–60-minute workshop on any topic related to women and leadership? Or do you/your organization already have a program planned for March that might be a good fit in this series and we could collaborate? You can check out what was done for the 2022 Women Leaders Series if you need some inspiration!

We have already received proposals for presentations on the following topics (and we are looking for many more!):

  • "A seat at the table" isn't the solution for gender equity
  • How to break down barriers and not accept limits
  • Play, Fun, and Happiness
  • Peace, Love, and Action
  • Margaret Thatcher: Political and Hegemonic Masculinity
  • Stuff Your Sorries in a Sack: Let's Talk About When and How to Apologize

We are accepting proposals for any event that your organization or department is planning to host, or for new workshops that you would like to present. The 11th Annual Women Leaders Series offers personal and professional development programs designed to enhance opportunities for college women student leaders. All of the programs offered in this annual series are free and open to all current Ithaca College students.

The 2023 WLS will run from Wednesday, March 1 through Friday, March 31. Please note that spring break is March 11-19. Proposals are due by Monday, January 31 so that we can begin the marketing campaign in early February.
