Colgate University is an independent liberal arts institution that had its genesis in the American Protestant tradition. We carry this heritage forward in the work and worship of University Church, with gratitude for our founders, who saw no discrepancy between a life of faith and the pursuit of truth and learning.

Dive into the startling world of fast fashion through this Vis Lab screening of The True Cost brought to Colgate's campus by University Museums. This conversation was inspired by two current exhibitions on display: Unraveled: Labor and Meaning Behind Weaving at the Longyear Museum of Anthropology and A Thought is a Thread at Picker Art Gallery.About the film: This is a story about clothing. It’s about the clothes we wear, the people who make them, and the impact the industry is having on our world. The price of clothing has been decreasing for decades, while the human and environmental costs have grown dramatically. The True Cost is a groundbreaking documentary film that pulls back the curtain on the untold story and asks us to consider, who really pays the price for our clothing?Inspired to take action after the screening?

With our machine, you can get your very own poem (for free—no quarters necessary).Inside the Poetry Machine are 10 different poems. Each one features a unique style of poetry, including haiku, cento, epistolary, list, ode, ekphrasis, prose poem, how-to, erasure, and cut-up.If you want to "check out" more poetry, visit the poetry display on the third floor of Case-Geyer. - Apr 158:15 AMSustainable Gardening in an Uncertain ClimateToday's Events | ALANA MPR
