The Women’s Center Sage Project Traveling Display Showcases Stories of Perseverance and Success

The Sage Project was created through Â鶹¾«Ñ¡â€™s Women’s Center to begin sharing female students’ stories with the community, to inspire others and to showcase stories of strength, courage and perseverance. In March, the Women’s Center held its second annual recognition reception to honor 12 women who have made the most of their education and time at Kent State. These 12 phenomenal women also have overcome barriers and found balance in following their path and making their mark at Kent State. 

The 12 female students who were selected and honored will be featured over the next year around campus through traveling displays of their stories.

You can see the students’ storyboards displayed at the following locations: 

  • Sonya Callahan, graduate student, health education and promotion: Storyboard on display in 212 White Hall
