Enter(ing) the Multiverse: A Kaleidoscope of Worlds

In claiming the multiverse as a site of a kaleidoscope of our worlds, we are reclaiming power of our narratives, histories, perspectives, identities, and more. The multiverse embraces our creation of decolonial worlds where we recognize that no person is one-dimensional and that there is power in every story. Where we also recognize that multiple perspectives come to shape our perspectives, whether that is our family members, our communities, our friends, our peers, and our experiences. As we craft the narratives of our lives, it is important to examine the various parts that make up who we are—the kaleidoscope represents this—and the multiverse brings it to life. In essence, the kaleidoscope is a way of reclaiming our narratives, especially in spaces in which marginalized groups have often been excluded; the kaleidoscope is essential in the inclusion of our stories. The kaleidoscope’s shifting and changing lenses are representative of the fluid and messy mosaic in which our narratives are formed and are forever changing. The multiverse is a site in which infinite possibilities and realities exist.


TWTP is a pre-orientation program that welcomes applications from all first-year students regardless of race, color, or national or ethnic origin. During the program, we invite all participants to reconsider their history and aspects of their identity.

"Is there another place where in the space of three short days you can discuss topics that most of the world feels uncomfortable addressing? TWTP will change the way you view the world around you, it will give you strength in the face of adversity, and surround you with friends who will always support you. I know it certainly did all of that for me."
