LVC celebrates the academic, dramatic, athletic, musical, and experiential achievements of the student body. Events began on Sunday, April 14, and concluded Saturday, April 20. Bey, a junior philosophy, American studies, and English major, presented "Speaking Mumbo Jumbo to an Invisible Native Son: Reading the Greats, Writing a Book, and Realizing I'm Not Them" and "Filling the Shell of the Black Woman With Nothing".
