Mission Committed to prayer and public relations, we engage with joy and creativity on the hill – and beyond. Aware of the urgent mission of women in our time, we walk with Mary, our example and our mother, and offer a sense of brotherhood to all women believers on campus. As Catholic girls, we strive to create a fraternity of Catholic women focused on service and spiritual development. Curious? We are always happy with new faces! Please contact catholicwomen@georgetown.edu if you have any questions or concerns about the recruitment process. The Georgetown College Academic Council is composed of elected representatives from each class who foster a working relationship between administration, students, and faculty to help students manage and improve their academic lives. Council interacts with College faculty and administration on a variety of issues. The College Academic Council represents Georgetown College students, solicits their opinions on academic matters, and acts on their behalf. He has helped strengthen student-faculty relationships through the Major Mentor Network, Dean`s Student Lunches, the College`s Annual Honors, and the College Major Fair. As an elected student body, the Academic Council wishes to fully serve the College. Feel free to send suggestions, questions or comments to members. We can be reached at cacouncil@georgetown.edu. The Georgetown University Social Innovation and Public Service Fund (SIPS) Fund is a $1.5 million student-run fund that provides approximately $60,000 in prizes each year to help students and alumni start their own social activities. SIPS`s mission stems from the Jesuit tradition of serving others.
Previous projects funded by SIPS include funding the Alternative Break (ABP) program, creating a book depicting chronically hospitalized children, and supporting a start-up that reduces food waste through the sustainable production of cold-pressed juices. Through its Summer Scholars program, SIPS has also funded proposals that have done important work, such as improving cooking practices in Rwanda by bringing ovens into communities and tracking their use, launching a community garden in N.E. DC and the holding of a theatre workshop in France to facilitate dialogue between French people and refugees living in Paris. For more information on past SIPS projects, please visit our website: sips.georgetown.edu/new-page-5 Originally a student organization on campus, the Georgetown Women`s Legal Alliance (“WLA”) connects people associated with the Law Center who are interested in equality and the advancement of women in the legal profession. WLA welcomes alumni, students and faculty of all gender identities at eye level.
