Neurodiversity and Allyship Awareness Week

This week, we’re celebrating the diversity of minds that make our campus community unique. We’re uplifting neurodivergent voices and creating spaces where students can feel grounded, supported and empowered. Whether you identify as neurodivergent or as an ally, this week is about learning, listening and showing up for one another in meaningful ways. Join us for a week of sensory-friendly events designed to spark connection, creativity and community. Everyone is welcome!
