About Us

BU Women of Color Circle was founded in 2019. The mission of the Circle is to foster a sense of community and comradery. We aim to gain support, share resources, and foster a sense of belonging within the BU Women’s Guild and throughout the University. The Women of Color Circle is open to all BUWG members, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, or gender expression.

The BUWG Women of Color Circle is envisioned as:

  • An affinity group for women of color who are members of the BU Women’s Guild. We are defining women of color broadly, including but not limited to those of African, Asian, Hispanic and Latina, Middle Eastern, Native American and Indigenous, and Native Hawaiian descent.

Commitment

Our commitment to the Women of Color Circle community:

  • Maintain partnership between the Women of Color Circle and the general membership of the BUWG
