Distinguished Women of Excellence had their first annual “Week of Excellence” last week. The week consisted of numerous events ranging from church and community service to a movie night and “Ladies’ Night” event.

DWE is striving to set their members up for success in all aspects of life while having fun doing it.

“We want our members to devote their time to exceeding in the classroom while also making sure that they use their time and talents to give back to the community,” said Taranesha Wright, DWE president and early childhood education major. “We expect our members to strive for excellence in whatever they do, but we also make sure that we create friendships and networking opportunities to enhance their social lives.”

This was DWE’s first time hosting a week of events, and they hope that “DWE Week” will get bigger and better each year.
