Making Change | Women's Her-Story Month
Our goal with our March post is to Celebrate Women’s History Month. In honor of this month we celebrate the contributions of remarkable women in history and present day. Too often, women were unsung heroes of our history and sometimes their contributions went unnoticed. This month we are proud to celebrate the achievements, leadership, courage, strength and love of the women who built our world, acknowledging these successes to be as vital as that of the men whose names we know so well.
Jess Wicks Brings Memphis to WSU
To understand Jessica Wicks is to understand a little about where she comes from; Memphis, Tennessee. The home of soul. A city full of a spirit, energy, and intensity seldom matched anywhere else. A name meaning established, enduring, and beautiful. And a history reaching as far back as the pharaohs, where the ancient Egyptian capital of Memphis was called “the life of the two lands,” an everlasting place.
