Dear Eagles,

Highlights this week include Career Center's Social Justice, Social Change Alumni Panel and C21 is hosting an Agape Latte featuring Kwasi Sarkodie-Mensah, Senior Instructor and Programs Librarian, who will be speaking about how the gift of his faith has given him the strength and resiliency to face difficult moments in his life. International Education Weeks also continues with a variety of upcoming events and BC Dining is hosting Global Flavors Pop Ups.

We want to ensure each of you feels safe and supported during your time at BC. We also want to encourage each of you to engage in respectful dialogue and behavior on and off-campus. Hateful or bias-motivated language or behavior have no place at Boston College and should be reported. If you are feeling stressed or anxious please do not hesitate to reach out to any of our departments including University Counseling which offers a variety of therapy groups and our Office of the Dean of Students. Your safety and wellbeing is our priority, please see a listing of resources below.
