#BEINGBRITE

So we would like to open the floor to you to help us tell our story. Show us how you are #BeingBrite in your daily life by using this hashtag on Facebook or Twitter. You can use this while attending Brite related events, enjoying seminars, or simply engaging in campus life. We want to hear what #BeingBrite means to you, and in doing so, we may feature your story on our social media or website. We look forward to seeing your contributions!
