SHIPPENSBURG, Pa. – The Shippensburg University Athletics Department has scheduled four virtual education sessions specifically for Raider student-athletes spanning Sept. 9-14.
The sessions, scheduled through SU Athletics' #ONESHIP initiative, will be online workshops with renowned speaker and educator Jen Fry.
Fry developed JenFryTalks: a social justice education firm that uses conversation to educate and empower those within athletics through an anti-racist lens on issues of race, inclusion, intersectionality, diversity, and equity. Her workshops are designed and tailored to discuss a variety of issues on race, diversity, gender, inclusion, antiracism, athletics, power, privilege, and more.
On Tuesday, Aug. 4, the administration and staff members of the SU Athletics department participated in a two-hour workshop with Fry. A predominant goal of the #ONESHIP initiative is to further develop best practices and enhance support for student-athletes, staff and coaches.
