Calling all poets! Spoken word artists. Slam poets. Page poets. Freestyle thinkers. Anyone who’s been quietly writing. Do you write in the margins of your notes? Keep poems in your phone that you’ve never shared? Spit bars in the shower or whisper random lines to yourself? You’re not alone!
The Division of Inclusion is gathering student poets, writers, listeners, and the poetry-curious to explore the possibility of creating a spoken word/slam poetry community on campus. You are welcome to join this safe, welcoming space to share your work (or not), and imagine what a poetry club at Lafayette could look like.
You don’t have to perform. You don’t have to be “good.” You just have to show up. Complete the interest form to connect with Prof. Mikael Awake and Jose Bencosme Peña ’26 for more information.
