Rebecca Hodson
Associate Director, International Education
"Ever since International Education moved into Room 222 we were immediately struck by the thriving community at the Y. Partnering with the Y for intercultural programs has brought students and community members together to learn crochet, calligraphy, and other crafts. Seeing the legendary Miss V - ballroom instructor and extraordinary crafter - teach undergrads how to crochet and stick around an hour after the program was a particular example of bridge building that I don't think occurs all that often on campus. The Y is a vibrant space that brings people from many cultures together. We feel right at home in the Y."
This project was made possible by a grant funded by Team Up, a national collaboration between Catholic Charities USA, Habitat for Humanity International, YMCA of the USA, and Interfaith America.
