The CGSE's annual Visionary-in-Residence program involves a wide and diverse collection of campus constituencies. Honorees - in residence 3-5 days - are chosen on the basis of their demonstrated ability to increase understanding of the nature of different and intersecting aspects of individual and cultural identity. They also bring with them experience and a commitment to fostering collaboration among diverse constituents, as well as a distinctive ability to engage a range of communities and enrich interaction among them. Past honorees include author/educator Dorothy Allison, writer/activist Rebecca Walker, Green Party VP candidate and environmental activist Winona LaDuke, and Third Wave activists Jennifer Baumgardner and Amy Richards.
