F.A.B.U.L.O.U.S Program

F.A.B.U.L.O.U.S stands for Fierce Appropriate Beautiful Unique Loving Outstanding Understanding Serious. The goal of the F.A.B.U.L.O.U.S program is to assist female students in their transition to Berea College and to increase the retention and graduation rate. Through activities and scheduled programs, participants will gain a better understanding of what it means to be a woman as well as identifying their personal definition of being a woman.
