At PLEN, Maryam recalled the strong sense of community among the students who attended PLEN, each of whom brought their own interests and passions to the seminar. When she returned to St. Lawrence University, Maryam knew that other students at her college would likewise benefit from PLEN. With her advocacy and support from Lynn Fox, St. Lawrence University became the first non-women’s college or former women’s college to join PLEN in 2013.
