Communications Club hosts local businesswomen for ‘Day of Dialogue’

The Day of Dialogue: Woman Power in the Community was held on Tuesday, March 17 in the Student Union Building of NIC.

Stephy Nobles-Beans, the Whitworth University coordinator for Ministry and Multicultural Affairs, was the keynote speaker. Nobles-Beans stressed the importance of experiencing delight with diversity, self-sufficiency, domestic violence awareness and the still present problem of gender inequality.

While the speaking received positive reception, some members of the audience expressed a want for further elaboration.

Rachel Johnston, a 17-year-old dual-credit student from Coeur d’Alene, explained her passion for gender stereotypes, as well as her critique of the event.

“I’m really interested in gender stereotypes and how they affect society. Definitely regarding women and women’s rights,” Johnston said. “I thought it was really well done, but I think it would be interesting if they had included more information about how women in high leadership roles are affected by stereotypes.”

Shae Griffiths, a 19-year-old General Studies student raised in Coeur d’Alene, gave the event a positive review.

“I thought it was very informative, I learned a lot,” Griffiths said. “There definitely needs to be improvements, and I think they covered what needs to be done.”
