Start by Believing Day

Special Event

Visit a pledge booth across the state on this day to learn how to respond to a survivor when they disclose their experience to you. Then, take the pledge to start by believing; making a personal commitment to respond to a survivor with belief and empathy, support that survivor on their road to justice and healing, and to end the silence and stop the cycle of violence within our communities. You can also take the pledge online throughout the month at startbybelieving.usu.edu and be sure to use the campaign hashtag #USUbelieves so we can track the number of pledges USU takes.

A Conversation with George Herms

Arts/Entertainment

Please join us for a moderated conversation with George Herms led by Bolton Colburn. A reception will follow. George Herms is one of the last living beat generation artists. A rebel to the core, he still makes assemblage sculptures from the detritus of our culture's castoffs and waste. Herms have been active both in northern and southern California with the assemblage and beat movements since the 1960s and have worked and collaborated with luminary artists and poets like Wallace Berman, Bruce Conner, Michael McClure, and Diane di Prima.

Denim Day

Special Event

Demin Day will be observed by USU Eastern and is the largest and longest running international sexual assault awareness campaign. Denim Day started in 1999 shortly after an Italian Supreme Court judge overturned a conviction based on the argument that the 18-year-old survivor’s jeans were so tight, her 46-year-old driving instructor couldn’t have removed them himself before sexually assaulting her. We'd love to see the entire USU Eastern community wearing denim on April 26th to show solidarity for survivors! We will also be holding a booth in JLSC from 9am-3pm and invite you all to come by to decorate and take photos by our denim wall.
