Together We Thrive Week is a school-wide celebration of the multiple identities and experiences that enrich our community. This year’s theme, Our Shared Humanity: Building Trust and Belonging, centers on fostering trust and advancing insights from several SOM-wide surveys and data sources. Building on last year’s theme of belonging, we aim to create meaningful opportunities for open dialogue, connection, and trust-building across our community.
Expect thought-provoking lectures, cultural activities, an inspiring art gallery, and a community gathering - all designed to bring us together and strengthen our shared sense of humanity. Register by May 16 to be part of the experience!
