The Office of Gender and Sexuality Student Programs (GSSP) and Center for Women and Business (CWB) are excited to open applications for the launch of Rainbow Scholars at Bentley University.
This one-year leadership program will provide LGBTQ+ (and allied) undergraduate members of the Bentley community with the opportunity to grow in both their personal and professional development through learning and engagement events. Through different workshop and programming opportunities, Rainbow Scholars will leave this program having developed skills of leadership, advocacy, identity awareness, and personal/professional development. Rainbow Scholars receive $500 each semester for their involvement in the program.
An information session will be held on Wednesday, September 14 from 2-3:30pm in the Gender and Sexuality Student Lounge and via Instagram Live (@cwbbentley). This information session will occur in the form of two 45-minute sessions to accommodate interested attendees' schedules.
The mandatory Rainbow Orientation for accepted applicants will take place on Tuesday, September 27.
Note: Students who are not studying abroad will receive priority for involvement in the Rainbow Scholars program.
