Brescia is proud to have a number of outstanding women athletes, who devote countless
hours of time and energy to excel both on and off the field, court, arena or pitch.
We know that as young women progress through their athletic career, representation
in sport diminishes--and women's professional leagues and leadership positions aren't
always on equal playing fields.
Brescia student athletes lead by example--shattering stereotypes--where it's not about running like a girl, it's about playing like an equal, striving for equal representation and funding in women's sports.
Meet third-year Family Studies and Human Development & Psychology student, Brigette Butler (Vig). Discover how Brigette leads together by putting her passions into action leading on and off the field.
Our generation is setting the precedent for the next generation. We are pushing society to acknowledge women as they are: powerful and capable of achieving their goals on and off the field.
Brescia offers the opportunity for all women to challenge themselves in an open, non-judgemental environment. Students support one another and staff push us to reach our full potential.
Take whatever passion you feel and put it into action. If not you, then who? Use your gifts to serve others.
I lead together through my actions. I and Brescia students around me put in effort each day in class, on the field and in our personal relationships. We work together to overcome roadblocks and with the communities' support, we strive to make a positive difference around the word.
