Womens History Month Celebration
Untold Stories - highlighting remarkable stories of service, kindness, and leadership that have made a lasting impact on us at Purdue
Friday, March 7
12pm - 2pm
 
In table groups at this event, we told stories about impactful Purdue women by answering the following prompt:
 
Think of a Purdue woman (either current or past) who has made a significant impact on you. What is one specific thing that person has said or done that made a difference in your professional and personal journey?
 
We then filled in a word to complete the following sentence with how this Purdue woman impacted us:
 
"Because of this Purdue woman, I am/have _______."
 
Themes of confidence, empowerment, connection, resilience, bravery, and more arose. We made all the words into a wordcloud butterflyDo you have an untold story to share about an impactful Purdue woman in your life?
