PSO staff want to make the program more diverse, inclusive, and accessible for the campus community. This involves tackling the issues of inaccessibility and racism in PSO, at Puget Sound, and in all outdoors communities.

Join us next Monday, March 22nd at 4 pm PST for an open and collaborative presentation and conversation about how we can envision a more equitable future for PSO. We have ideas to share and want to incorporate yours too!

Film description: Not seeing herself reflected in the community she loves, mountain biker, skier and artist Brooklyn Bell created her own role model: a hand-drawn hero called Ruby J. With Ruby J as a guide, Brooklyn spent the next few years trying to “live like her, breathe like her, be unapologetically black like her,” and in the process shaped her own identity, one that intertwines her love for dirt, snow and art—and a voice with which to advocate for diversity and inclusion.
