The Vagina Monologues, a feisty, funny and touching piece of theater that chronicles intimacy, vulnerability and sexual self-discovery from the female perspective, had a successful three-night run raising more that $1,500 to combat violence against women.

The play, performed by an ensemble of students, faculty and staff, was presented in conjunction with “V-Day,” February 14, during which many colleges and other organizations perform the play to raise awareness and financially support causes that help stop violence against women.
