I was thinking about how students enter the classroom & some of them are carrying such secret pain. Doesn’t matter what it is. Bullied. Gay. Struggling. Abused. Most of them will never tell you what it is…so when you look at your class -teach them from the inside out.

A huge congratulations to #SpringfieldCollege student Mikaili Charlemagne who has qualified to represent her home country of Saint Lucia in the upcoming 2021 Olympic Games in Tokyo Japan. ➡️ bit.ly/3qkNfC0

Amazing read. Awesome person and leader.

I reckon it's pretty bullshit that I'm unable to get a hysterectomy until I'm 35 or have had children. I have chronic endometriosis and ovarian cysts. This operation would be life-changing, yet I have to deal with doctors telling me I'm not ready.

Pretty special to turn on the #OpeningCeremony of #Tokyo2020 and see current #SpringfieldCollege swimmer Mikaili Charlemagne with the rest of her Saint Lucia teammates! #OlympiansMadeHere 🔻

Since the IOC has created a rule for transgender athletes to compete in 2003, over 65,000 people have become Olympians (including Tokyo 2020 athletes). Laurel Hubbard will be the first transgender athlete to compete in a category other than her sex assigned at birth.

The dangerous intersection of racism, sexism, and ableism is playing out right before our eyes, and all some folx can talk about is medal count and how we didn’t win gold… *Y’all* are annoying.

Just days away from her #TokyoOlympics debut, #SpringfieldCollege student-athlete Mikaili Charlemagne shared her approach to competing on the international stage for her home country of Saint Lucia! #ncaad3 🔻🇱🇨

Cheering on Olympian and #SpringfieldCollege student-athlete Mikaili Charlemagne as she sets a new Saint Lucia national record in the 50 freestyle… Now that’s an awesome Friday.

From now on, if a team cannot provide me a single player who will talk about their team's Pride Night or Pride Game, I won't report on it. There has to be at least one player who wants to talk about it. If not... it's empty. And I won't promote it. Make it real.

#SpringfieldCollege Assistant Professor Kathleen Mellano was recently interviewed by media outlets about athlete mental health related to the #TokyoOlympics. As part of these requests, Mellano joined an episode of @HelloAndAnother on New England Public Media. ➡️ bit.ly/3lNeOU7

No words, only tears. Thank you NWSLPA ❤️

Springfield College women's basketball graduate assistant coach Colleen O'Connell has proved to be a big factor in the team's success. O'Connell's will for perfection has resonated with the Pride this season. 📝Hayden Choate | Hayden Choate buff.ly/3HPH40Q
