Today is Commencement. Congratulations to the Beloit College Class of 2022.
All of the best stories Beloit has to offer.
Five Beloiters recently traveled to the nation’s capital to learn more about lobbying for immigration rights. Funded through the Weissberg Program in Human Rights and Social Justice, the trip showed the students how young people can advocate for lasting change.
Beloiters celebrate spring’s arrival and the waning days of the college semester each April with a day off from classes. Spring Day is equal parts food, fun, music, and savoring good times with classmates.
Susan Furukawa published her book The Afterlife of Toyotomi Hideyoshi: Historical Fiction and Popular Culture in Japan in March.
Graphic novelist and educator Lynda Barry has been named 2023’s Mackey Chair. The 2019 MacArthur Fellow researching the role of words and pictures in encouraging creative output in young children will teach the Mackey Workshop half-semester course for students in the spring of 2023, as well as host a creativity workshop with faculty and staff. Her much-anticipated reading is slated for February.
See how Stella Barrett has taken a passion for environmental education and turned it into a local internship opportunity with a lasting impact on the future.
Beloit College has a rich history of producing literary publications, from Blue Moon to Pocket Lint, but only the annual Beloit Fiction Journal features professional works of fiction submitted by writers across the country and edited by Beloit students. Through creative writing courses, students consider more than 1,000 submissions, choose the journal’s cover, design the pages, and hold a celebratory reading on campus each spring.
She monitors industry trends and changes, such as the Securities and Exchange Commission’s new environmental disclosure regulations and the evolving criteria of the Dow Jones Sustainability Index.
Maura reported that her environmental studies capstone project was critical to getting the position: “the interviewers were really impressed with my knowledge and research I’ve done regarding environmental justice and Indigenous rights, which they view as an important asset for this position.”
In collaboration with a local conservation nonprofit called Rock County Conservationists, the students built fire breaks and worked the perimeter to keep the fire contained within the prairie.
Library and Information Technology Services piloted a program to assess its print materials for diverse subjects and authors, making a more welcoming library for all Beloiters.
