Each year\, Wheaton’s Day of Giving brings Wheaties together from around the world–alumni\, parents\, students\, faculty & staff\, and friends–to give back and to celebrate what they care most about the College. \nIn honor of Wheaton opening its doors  to it’s first fifty pupils on April 22\, Wheaton’s Day of Giving celebrates the abundant lives that have manifested due to Wheaton’s tradition of providing a life-changing liberal arts education. \nBy supporting Wheaton students during the annual Day of Giving\, you help future generations of innovators\, leaders\, and creators embrace our motto\, “That they may have life\, and may have it abundantly.” \nWe put together a Volunteer Toolkit for those who would like to become an advocate and help us spread the word. \nMark your calendar and dust off your Wheaton gear. April 22 will be a virtual celebration of all things Wheaton. And it simply wouldn’t be a Wheaton party without you! \nMake Your Gift URL:https://wheatoncollege.edu/event/day-of-giving/ CATEGORIES:Alumni,Athletics,Community,Faculty & Staff,Students ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://wheatoncollege.edu/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Day-of-Giving-2024.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Wheaton Fund":MAILTO:wheatonfund@wheatoncollege.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240423T123000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240423T133000 DTSTAMP:20260421T202931 CREATED:20240209T165938Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240223T183416Z UID:10006543-1713875400-1713879000@wheatoncollege.edu SUMMARY:Faculty Research Talk DESCRIPTION:Join Ada McKenzie Thomas\, Asst. Professor of English\, for an upcoming Faculty Research Talk\, Abbey Lincoln’s Spiritual Roots. \nPresenters will begin by discussing their topic\, and each session will close with a question and answer segment. All presentations are virtual and free and the Zoom link will be sent the day before this discussion. \nDescription: In this talk\, I examine Abbey Lincoln’s rootedness in spirituality as evinced in her poetry and songwriting from the latter part of her career. Her albums\, Talking to the Sun (1983)\, Devil’s Got Your Tongue (1992)\, Wholly Earth (1999)\, as well as poems from her unpublished collection\, In a Circle\, Everything is Up\, reveal her lifelong identity as a fervent roots-seeker\, a spiritual sojourner in search of truth and understanding. \nA multifaceted artist whose career traversed the Civil Rights and Black Arts Movements\, and intersected with Black feminisms and Pan-Africanist discourses\, Lincoln’s concerns frequently echo those of other writers and artists of the various eras through which she lived. Lincoln’s thematic eclecticism is a hallmark of her songwriting\, poetry\, and prose\, however her work remains rooted in a deeply personal and spiritual exploration. This talk explores the motifs of this spiritual sojourn emerging from Lincoln’s latter works\, as based upon the archival research that I have conducted for my manuscript on Lincoln’s life in letters\, Aminata: Abbey Lincoln’s Song of Faith\, to be published by Rutgers University Press. \nRegister URL:https://wheatoncollege.edu/event/faculty-research-talk-11/ LOCATION:Virtual CATEGORIES:Academic,Alumni,Faculty & Staff,Students,Virtual ORGANIZER;CN="Alumni Relations":MAILTO:alum@wheatoncollege.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240423T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240423T190000 DTSTAMP:20260421T202931 CREATED:20240423T124339Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240423T135204Z UID:10006593-1713895200-1713898800@wheatoncollege.edu SUMMARY:Career Networking Speaker Series: Brian Smiley DESCRIPTION:Interested in Apple?
