CMU Provost Lancaster addresses letter from Department of Education about DEI
Central Michigan University Provost Paula Lancaster told Academic Senate to continue working as usual while CMU is looking for more answers about the legal powers of "Dear Colleague" letter from the United States Department of Education. In the letter, educational institutions are adviced to end Diversity, Equity and Inclusion efforts. The letter said educational institutions must not treat a person of one race differently from a person of another race, including white and Asian people. That means the race must not be used in decisions about admission, hiring and other aspects of campus life. ✍️Masha Smahliuk #centralmichiganuniversity #LifeatCentral #fireupchips #departmentofeducation

The downtown Mount Pleasant Christmas Celebration is a beloved holiday tradition that has been happening annually for almost thirty years. With a weekend full of events, the downtown area was packed with community members looking for some holiday cheer.
Soap With a Story
Inside a partially abandoned warehouse on Pickard Road, the fragrant scent of essential oils fills the air of a small but colorful room. Dried plants hang from the ceiling and a rack lined with rows of soap bars, each one unique, sits in the center of the room. This is where Sarah Stevens, owner of Love That Soap, spends much of her time. Love That Soap is a handmade soap business in Mount Pleasant, Michigan. However, the business wasn’t always hers. Her father, Dave Pety, started Love That Soap after he was laid off. Video by Ella Miller
Weaving Art With Mentorship
Nestled in the serene woods of Shepherd, Michigan, you can find the Barstow home. Donated to CMU in 1992, the property features an organic, natural design and overlooks the Chippewa River. Katie Mongoven, the 2024-25 Barstow Artist-in-Residence, can often be found in the nearby studio, working on hand-dying fabric, beading, weaving or embroidery.
Every day looks different for Mongoven, who is a Chinese American artist from Washington, D.C. Sometimes she fills her days practicing her art, while others are spent preparing and teaching workshops or giving artist talks.
