Pronouns
She / HerTo acknowledge that assumptions about someone’s gender identity could be incorrect, many organizations, including NC State, have begun to encourage community members to include a brief statement of their gender pronouns as they introduce themselves within a group.

Shout-outs From My Colleagues
Shout-outs are kind words from Libraries staff to other Libraries staff for going out of their way to be extra awesome at their job.
The 'Family Dance Party' at Hunt Library was such a fun, engaging, and exciting way for children and their families to take part in our Libraries programming and spaces with dancing and music making. Courtney's DJ-ing and Lara's MC-ing brought so much energy to the event and ensured a memorable day the Libraries for all the participants including the children and their families. It was a generous, joyful, and inclusive event that brought in new members of the Libraries community and it couldn't have happened without Lara and Courtney's above-and-beyond effort and talents.

On September 23, the Libraries hosted its first ever Femme Game Night to add more gender diversity to our gaming spaces. Courtney Hewett was the prime mover for this incredibly successful event -- she worked with two student employees (Jayden Sansom and Marie Schwartz) to plan, design, market and host 4 hours of game play in the Game Lab. Not only did participants have fun and build community, they thanked Courtney and the Libraries for hosting and a few students said it was their first time in Hunt Library. Courtney's inclusive and student-centered approach informed this whole process and was evident in students' engagement.
