Walk from Campus to Oxford square on April 22 to champion and support science.
Science protects the health of our communities, the safety of our families, the education of our children, the foundation of our economy and jobs, and the future we all want to live in and preserve for coming generations. Science is a tool of discovery that allows us to constantly expand and revise our knowledge of the universe. In doing so, science serves the interests of all humans. Science education teaches children and adults to think critically, ask questions, and evaluate truth based on the weight of evidence. Science promotes diversity and inclusion in science to build robust and resilient communities for the benefit of all people. Science makes our democracy stronger.
On April 22, scientists and supporters of science marched in cities and towns across the world to reaffirm these core values.
Please stand up for science and join your fellow Ole Miss scientists in a celebration of science by walking from campus to Oxford square. This is a strictly non-political, non-partisan event. We value inclusion, diversity, equity, and access to everybody. We aim for a diverse group of participants, including first-time marchers. Families with young children are welcome.
We will assembly on the steps of the Lyceum (University Circle) at 10:30 am and start walking at 11:00am. The planned route (about 1 mile) will take us through the Grove, University Avenue and South Lamar. We will end the march at Oxford Square.
Please show your support for science as a vital feature of a working democracy, spurring innovation, critical thinking, increased understanding, and better, healthier lives for all people.
