You’re invited to a Coming Out Day celebration

Be in community this Coming Out Day! Drop in for a celebration of the beauty of the gender and sexuality spectrum tomorrow, October 11th from 11am-1pm on the quad! We will have an interactive “coming out of the closet” photo booth with inclusive signs and fun props, a button-making station, stickers, delicious snacks and more! Come learn some of the campus and community resources that support you exactly as you are. You don’t have to be out to find community with us, join us for a good time! The alternative celebration location will be the KC living room.

This event is a cross-campus collaboration with Albion On Purpose, Anna Howard Shaw Center for Gender Equity, Depts. Ethnic Studies and Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, LGBriTs, the Office of Belonging, and the Office of Campus Life.

Solar eclipse Oct. 14

On Saturday, Oct. 14, 2023, an annular solar eclipse will cross North, Central, and South America. The “ring of fire” will be visible in parts of the United States, Mexico, and many countries in South and Central America. In Albion, we’ll see a partial solar eclipse, with about 45% coverage. As a reminder, a total solar eclipse will occur on April 8, 2024, when Albion will see about 97% coverage (with totality in Toledo).

Eclipse glasses are the best way to safely view the Sun and protect your eyes. The Physics Department has a limited supply and is distributing them as loaners for the October 14 eclipse. Please get eclipse glasses from Elisa Reynolds in the Science Complex Office, during normal business hours. We expect you to return them when we return to campus after Fall Break.

More information about the October 14 annular eclipse, including the path of totality, can be found here. More information about the April 8, 2024 total solar eclipse can be found here.
