Our Olive Grove is one of the most resilient places on campus, as these trees use little water, withstand heat, and store CO2.
Due to lower than usual yield, we will not have our Annual Olive Harvest this fall. Yet to continue the tradition, we invite you to celebrate our olive trees. Co-sponsors include Office of Sustainability, Office of Religious and Spiritual Life, Emmons Health and FEAST.
Location: Choi Auditorium

Prof. Miura argues that the emergence of deified peasants, commemorated through local “martyr shrines,” represented a widespread religious current in Tokugawa society and a new mode of deification previously unobserved.
Demands to return cultural treasures to their homelands are nothing new—but today they’re louder and more urgent than ever. Supporters of repatriation usually make two claims: (1) these objects are essential to the identity and history of the communities they come from, and (2) many were removed unjustly and often violently. Returning them, then, is not just about moving artifacts from one museum to another; it’s about acknowledging and repairing historical harm, challenging the legacy of colonialism and other forms of imperialism, and trying to reverse time itself.
Project SAFE invites the Oxy community to the Halloween Consent Carnival, a festive evening that combines spooky seasonal fun with interactive activities designed to promote healthy communication, boundary-setting, and respect. Featuring carnival-style games, creative stations, costume contests, and plenty of treats, the event offers students a playful, low-pressure space to learn about consent and connect with peers.
Together, we will use collage as a way to explore themes of memory, ecology, embodiment, and transformation.
This workshop is designed as a supportive and reflective space where art becomes a tool for care, connection, and reclamation. Through guided prompts and open exploration, participants can create works that honor rootedness, shadow, and the fragments that make up our stories.
