Students in the Project Success program hosted a women's conference on Oct. 22 at MCC-Penn Valley. The conference celebrated the strength of women and encouraged female students to stay committed during their academic journey.
The program featured a poem entitled "A Strong Woman" that summed up the purpose of the conference:
"A strong woman
is one who feels deeply
and loves fiercely.
Her tears flow
just as abundantly
as her laughter.
A strong woman
Is both soft and powerful.
She is both
practical and spiritual.
A strong woman
In her essence
is a gift to all the world."
