Students flowed in and out of the Women’s Center on April 9 for the Crafternoon event. 

Bri Navarro, an International Studies major, and Melanie Velazco-Curiel, a Virtual Technology & Design major, both work as volunteers at the Women’s Center. They were friendly, open and eager to show students how to make their own blue, power cord bracelets for Sexual Assault Awareness month. 

Tara Keuter, a wildlife resources major, made multiple Sexual Assault Awareness bracelets at the Women’s Center.  

Sierra Brantz, an international studies major, also made multiple Sexual Assault Awareness bracelets at the same time as Keuter.

Students who attended the event received snacks, posters, buttons and a bag of information relating to sexual assault awareness from a table set up in the center.  

A trifold board about Sexual Assault Awareness month sat at another table for students to read and become educated on this issue.
