"It's been a collaborative event," she said. "I don't think it could have been any more inclusive." She said there has been a lot of dis cussion about the conference meeting the needs of students and faculty, and further discussions will take place af ter the event. "I've tried to address the needs of women of color on campus and the women of diverse backgrounds," she said. Tuesday features theatrical perform ances by Erin O'Brien, a Vietnamese Irish American activist who will address issues such as hate crimes, homopho bia and violence against women, ac cording to the release. The performanc es include "Sometimes I feel," Growing up Gay and The Dress. Members of ethnic student unions are sponsoring a women of color open-mic event Thursday that will highlight some of the campus women of color's voices and talents, junior lijin Abraham said. Abraham, who is helping direct the event, said students also are sponsoring a workshop titled "Con solidating the Fractured Image Among Women of Color," which is intended to examine image and identity misconceptions among women of color. "It's going to be kind of a safe space for women of color," she said. Herman said the international theme is meant to speak to a variety of women because people have different perceptions of who women of color are "It's very hard to define what's a woman of color," she said. Abraham said she has been appre hensive about this year's theme while serving as the connection be tween the event's coordinator and the student groups on campus. She said the international theme has the potential to leave out American women of color.

"As long as they don't get overlooked and they're included in the international perspec tive, that's great." She said the conference is impor tant for letting people know there are women of color on campus. "They're very underrepresented," she said. Women's Center Director Lisa Foisy said Herman has sought out many viewpoints about the conference throughout the planning process. "On her part, she really worked hard to reach a variety of con stituents," Foisy said. She said the input of campus groups and departments, and the co ordinator's vision determine the theme for the conference. "It can change from year to year," she said. "Really it's open." Andy Smith will wrap up the con ference with the keynote speech Thursday. Smith co-founded Incite! Women of Color Against Violence, a national activist organization of feminists of color that aims to end violence against women of color and their communities, according to its Web site, http://www.incite-na tional.org. Herman said one of the main pur poses of the conference is to motivate people. She said she also hopes the conference will educate people about feminism around the world. "We definitely want to bring aware ness to campus," she said. Contact the higher education/ student life/student affairs reporter atchelseaduncan@daiiyemerald.com.
