The Value of Free
Free tuition is a conversation worth having. Berea College has been paying for students' tuition for more than 130 years, but this isn't about us. This is about what a tuition-free education could mean for society as a whole. Those best equipped to tell that story are our alumni. And the best way for us to contribute to the national conversation is to amplify their voices. #ValueofFree

Jamie Oleka: A Value of Free Story
Jamie Oleka ’13, a first-generation college student, arrived into unknown territory to pursue a much-desired education. Jamie’s mother immigrated to the United States from the Philippines, and her father grew up in eastern Kentucky. “Both of them really stressed the importance of education,” she said. “In fact, to them, they made it seem like education was the closest thing to magic as far as ending generational poverty and really having more opportunities in life.

Gender Talk with Katy Pyle (February 23, 2022)
Ballez founder and Artistic Director Katy Pyle will engage in a creative conversation with Professor M. Shadee Malaklou to discuss their work to radically re-imagine the ballet canon to include the legacies and futures of non-binary, trans, and gender non-confirming queer dancers. Since 2011, Ballez has been challenging ballet's cis hetero patriarchal, racist and bod-shaming legacy through the creation of full-length story ballets, public classes, and international conversations that defy and re-invent what ballet can be, and who it can represent. This conversation will dive into that history, its challenges and triumphs, and look towards a radical queer future. Lunch will catered by the Farm Store and served in the Yahng Center 11 AM-12 PM prior to the event. This event is co-sponsored by Dance. -

Gender Talk with Joseph Pierce (November 10, 2021)
While Indigenous studies is often preoccupied with the relationship between land, bodies, and people, many Indigenous stories describe communal relationships with the stars. This presentation will explore how queer kinship can be expressed as a relationship with land and other-than-human beings, but also with stars. These celestial relations are part of Indigenous traditions of emergence and endurance and as such can teach us how to imagine future worlds. -
Celebrating 150 Years of the Berea College Farm
We are celebrating the 150th anniversary of the Berea College Farm! Established in 1871, the Berea College Farm is one of the oldest continuously run educational farms in North America. Now at 500 acres, the Farm serves not only as an enormous classroom for Agriculture and Natural Resources majors and labor students, it is also a laboratory for the latest techniques in sustainable farming. The Farm maintains animal-welfare certifications on several of the livestock enterprises and its produce and grain are USDA certified organic, a value that is just one way Berea College lives out its commitment to mindful and sustainable living in Appalachia. -
Grand Opening of the bell hooks center
On Wednesday, September 22, 2021, the bell hooks center formally launched with opening remarks from President Lyle Roelofs, Associate Provost Eileen McKiernan González, and the center’s Inaugural Director, M. Shadee Malaklou. Their remarks were followed by a Gender Talk featuring black feminist icon Beverly Guy-Sheftall. In her talk, Guy-Sheftall reflects on her personal and intellectual comradeship with bell hooks—whom she describes as a feminist critic, theorist, writer, professor, dissident, activist, and revolutionary. Her remarks capture the urgency of hooks’s rebellious teachings around race and gender equity and her decades-long impact on the academy and women’s movements.
