Start by Believing Day

Special Event

Visit a pledge booth across the state on this day to learn how to respond to a survivor when they disclose their experience to you. Then, take the pledge to start by believing; making a personal commitment to respond to a survivor with belief and empathy, support that survivor on their road to justice and healing, and to end the silence and stop the cycle of violence within our communities. You can also take the pledge online throughout the month at startbybelieving.usu.edu and be sure to use the campaign hashtag #USUbelieves so we can track the number of pledges USU takes.

A Conversation with George Herms

Arts/Entertainment

Please join us for a moderated conversation with George Herms led by Bolton Colburn. A reception will follow. George Herms is one of the last living beat generation artists. A rebel to the core, he still makes assemblage sculptures from the detritus of our culture's castoffs and waste. Herms have been active both in northern and southern California with the assemblage and beat movements since the 1960s and have worked and collaborated with luminary artists and poets like Wallace Berman, Bruce Conner, Michael McClure, and Diane di Prima.
