CECP Graduate Student Organization (GSO)
GSO Events -12th Annual Diversity Gala
Diversity Gala: Paul Boellner
Purpose: Our night to come together and celebrate the backgrounds, perspectives and cultures that make up our distinctive tapestry, the Diversity Gala is an exciting annual Marquette tradition. We learn from our professors and we learn from our coursework, but time spent at a university is also a time of exposure to people and traditions from every corner of the globe. The Diversity Gala brings us all together in respect for one another, and it brings us all together in a colorful celebration.
In an effort to endorse the Marquette University Department of Counselor Education and Counseling Psychology's commitment to diversity and social justice, the department's Graduate Student Organization has established a Diversity Scholarship. The purpose of this student-initiated scholarship is to:
- Foster an academic, professional, and social environment in our department that embraces diversity
- Encourage enrollment of persons with diverse backgrounds
- Promote leadership among persons with diverse backgrounds in the field of counseling psychology. Our goal is to award this scholarship annually to masters and/or doctoral students within our department.
Details: This event will take place on April 13, 2012 at the Harley Davidson Museum from 6:00-10:00. We will have a dinner and the scholarship presentation, along with a special guest keynote speaker for the evening. A silent auction will be held, so please come and support the Diversity Gala and enjoy an evening of fun!
Tickets: $35 for GSO Members, $40 for Non-Members
