Committee members from the women’s and gender studies program in the College of Liberal Arts commemorated Women’s History Month on March 28 by handing out tulips and fair-trade chocolate to the RIT community. The gesture aimed to reclaim commercialized products—flowers as symbols of life, hope and strength, and fair-trade chocolate as a sign of non-exploitative practices. Material related to women’s issues and campus activities and programs was also available. Here, Jasmine Lockwood, a new-media design student, stops to pick up a tulip.
