Our signature events are annual programs or on-going projects coordinated by the PVAMU Women’s Council. These events create the space for personal and professional development of participants. We provide opportunities for engagement and learning while promoting inclusion and scholarly activities.
Hatitude Tea Party
The Hatitude Tea Party is an elegant affair that offers students, faculty and staff the opportunity to wear fancy dresses (pants if preferred) and an elegant hat made by participants (see attached flyer). In years past, the ladies were escorted by guys in bowties in a processional walk made from AI Thomas to the Memorial Student Center. Mrs. Williams, Mrs. Gonzalez and Ms. Yell will organize the events of the Hatitude Tea Party and the date of the event is TBA.
Hat-making for the tea party is hosted by Mrs. Gonzalez, director of Multicultural Affairs. Her office is located in 125 May Hall. Multicultural Affairs provide students, faculty, and staff with all of the supplies need to make the hats for the event.
