Dear Eagles,

Happy final week of January! As the semester starts to kick off, take a minute to review some of the exciting events and opportunities coming up at the heights.

This week, I want to highlight this Saturday's annual Boston College Summit.  The Boston College Summit is a daylong conference that serves as a catalyst for attendees to engage with intersectional issues and topics that foster greater self-awareness and a stronger community of belonging while serving as a launching pad for future action. Learn more about this event and reserve your spot today.

Also, there is an information session on the Benigno and Corazon Aquino Scholarship opportunity and the Dean of Students office in partnership with Residential Life is holding their monthly Deans and Donuts event focused on answering housing faqs this Friday!

Yours in Community,

Dr. Shawna Cooper Whitehead
Vice President for Student Affairs
