ASPIRE Week is about reminding us that we all matter and belong in this community but also that we have a duty and responsibility to remind and help others see that they matter and belong here, too.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>The week kicks off by celebrating Accountability, <\/strong>with representatives from around campus who have accountability at the core of their mission. Featured participants will include UMW Police, the Student Conduct Review Board, Eagles in Recovery, Residence Life and Housing, the Center for Prevention and Education, and will include refreshments. The event takes place in the Cedric Rucker University Center living rooms from noon to 2 p.m. on Monday, April 15.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The second day on Scholarship<\/strong> will showcase the annual Majors Fair from noon to 2 p.m. on Tuesday, April 16, where current students can explore academic programs by visiting departments tabling in a central location. This event will be held outdoors in Palmieri Plaza, with a back-up rain date of April 18.<\/p>\n<p>Tuesday afternoon also features a listening session from <em>One Small Step<\/em>, a program by StoryCorps, nationally broadcast on NPR and shared through a podcast, animated shorts, digital platforms and best-selling books. The nine conversations recorded at UMW in fall 2023 for the One Small Step program include students, faculty, staff and community members. Join in the listening session on Tuesday, April 16, from 3 to 5 p.m., to be among the first to hear the conversations, which aspire not to debate politics but to learn who we are as people. In other words, it fosters learning and understanding, and contributes to UMW\u2019s rich tradition of scholarship. Audio recordings of each interview will be archived at the Library of Congress.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"1100\" data-carousel-extra='{&quot;blog_id&quot;:7,&quot;permalink&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.umw.edu\\\/news\\\/2024\\\/04\\\/09\\\/aspire-week-becomes-annual-umw-tradition-in-april-2024\\\/&quot;,&quot;likes_blog_id&quot;:230672515}' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 1100px; height: 229px;\" data-original-width=\"1100\" data-original-height=\"229\" > <div class=\"gallery-group images-1\" style=\"width: 154px; height: 229px;\" data-original-width=\"154\" data-original-height=\"229\" > <div class=\"tiled-gallery-item tiled-gallery-item-small\" itemprop=\"associatedMedia\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/2023\/04\/25\/student-leaders-event-aspires-to-celebrate-community-values\/1x5a7665\/\" border=\"0\" itemprop=\"url\"> <meta itemprop=\"width\" content=\"150\"> <meta itemprop=\"height\" content=\"225\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" data-attachment-id=\"93680\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/04\/1X5A7665-scaled.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1707,2560\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4.5&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS R6&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1681335905&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;24&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0015625&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"\" data-image-description=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/04\/1X5A7665-200x300.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/04\/1X5A7665-683x1024.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/04\/1X5A7665-scaled.jpg?w=150&#038;h=225&#038;ssl=1\" srcset=\"\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/04\/1X5A7665-scaled.jpg 1707w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/04\/1X5A7665-200x300.jpg 200w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/04\/1X5A7665-683x1024.jpg 683w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/04\/1X5A7665-768x1152.jpg 768w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/04\/1X5A7665-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/04\/1X5A7665-1365x2048.jpg 1365w\" width=\"150\" height=\"225\" loading=\"lazy\" data-original-width=\"150\" data-original-height=\"225\" itemprop=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/image\" title=\"\" alt=\"UMW students Ryan Meek and Kaylah Lightfoot participate last year on ASPIRE Week&#039;s Personal and Institutional Integrity Day, which reacquainted students with the Honor Council&#039;s process of dealing with student conduct.
