- 12:00 AM5:00 PMFAU Day at the CapitolThe Office of Government Relations is committed to further developing the connections between our elected officials and the wonderfully talented individuals within the FAU community. Our institution has developed a consistent, University-wide presence in Tallahassee, which culminates in FAU Day at the Capitol. FAU Day brings a delegation of more than 40 students, faculty, staff and alumni to Tallahassee to engage lawmakers, share the University’s successes and increase awareness and understanding of our legislative priorities. Achieving our ambitious goals and continuing to contribute to the economic growth of our region requires the engagement of both our internal and external constituencies. The vocal support of the Owl Nation is vital to the University’s success. I encourage you to join us for an in person day of advocacy and celebration in our state’s Capitol. Individuals attending FAU Day will be responsible for making their own arrangements for accommodations and transportation to and from Tallahassee. The event details and group room rate are provided below. Once you have booked your accommodations and transportation, please contact the Office of Government Relations to confirm your participation.Hosted by: FAU Student GovernmentAdditional Information can be found at: https://fau.campuslabs.com/engage/event/8729452

Through the lens of endometriosis, a disease that affects 1 in 9 women, the film shows how women are often dismissed, discounted & disbelieved. It follows a diverse selection of women with endometriosis as they navigate their diagnosis within their individual circumstances and ages – including personal symptoms, impact on their relationships, and navigating their everyday lives. The film brings a much needed personal and relatable perspective to a disease that affects so many women around the world, but that still lacks key awareness and education. Food will be provided!
