International Education Week is an opportunity to celebrate the benefits of international education and exchange worldwide. This joint initiative of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education is part of efforts to promote programs that prepare Americans for a global environment and attract future leaders from abroad to study, learn, and exchange experiences in the United States.
Based on true events, Tracey Deer's debut feature chronicles the 78-day standoff between two Mohawk communities and government forces in 1990 in Quebec. No charge to attend, snacks will be provided.
Understanding Dobbs Discussion Series
Presented by Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies and The Center for Women and Gender Equity
Racial Politics of Reproductive Rights with Thasia Awad and Dr. Kimberly Stanley
November 17, Noon - 1 p.m.
BTSU 316
Protecting women of color and their children is used by both sides of the abortion debates. This session explores the racial politics of reproductive rights, including why a disproportionate number of women of color seek abortions, and the work of women of color activists to tackle the black maternal mortality crisis in the U.S. Thasia Awad is the Director of the Melanation Healing Project, and Dr. Kimberly Stanley is an Ethnic Studies professor at BGSU.
Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization (2022) is a landmark decision of the U.S. Supreme Court that has overturned Roe v. Wade (1973) and Planned Parenthood v. Casey (1992). The Dobbs decision states that the Constitution of the United States does not confer a right to abortion. Much is unknown in the wake of this landmark decision. The Understanding Dobbs discussion series explores many of the issues the Dobbs decision has uncovered, deepening our collective knowledge and fostering civil dialogue. This is a brown-bag series and participants are encouraged to bring their own lunches.

From Concord Theatricals:
A comedic romp into the world of fantasy role-playing games! In this high-octane dramatic comedy laden with homicidal fairies, nasty ogres, and 90s pop culture, acclaimed playwright Qui Nguyen offers a heart-pounding homage to the geek and warrior culture within us all.
